Recently, when to resume work has become the most anxious question for people. Due to the continuous spread of the epidemic, companies have repeatedly postponed the time to resume work. On February 12, China Oriental Silk Market issued an announcement that it would open on February 21.
It is understood that many textile companies in Wujiang area have already filled out applications for resumption of work, and some printing and dyeing factories will also start entering warehouses today. , coloring, etc. I believe the resumption of work is just around the corner!
The most difficult thing about resuming work is the manual problem!
Currently, many companies are actively preparing for resumption of work, including purchasing masks, 84 disinfectant, body temperature guns, etc. In addition to the difficulty in purchasing protective materials, which makes it difficult for companies to resume work, the biggest headache is still labor question. A textile company with annual sales of more than 50 million said: “At present, all the staff in our office are in place, but workers such as rolling rolls, dyeing factory workers and order takers have not yet arrived, and the production capacity is estimated to only be restored to 30%. Every year there will be a big shortage of workers. It is impossible to recruit workers now. Roads are closed in many places and people cannot get out at all. It is estimated that when work resumes, they will have to go to work in person, and there will be no overtime work by then. It’s a matter of methods.”
Coincidentally, a company in Pingwang area also revealed: “We have submitted an application and have come to review it. It is estimated that we should be able to resume work by the 20th at the latest. Our foreign customers have already informed us I have placed an order, but we cannot start work now. Due to the epidemic, the entire market has been disrupted. It is estimated that when work starts, dyeing factories, weaving factories, and finishing factories will be very busy, and there may even be a warehouse explosion.”
Flow of personnel The greater the risk, the greater the spread of the epidemic, especially at the return point. Even if many non-local employees arrive in Suzhou, they cannot enter the community. Therefore, in order to block the spread of the epidemic, employees from Hubei, Anhui, Henan and Employees in “hardest-hit areas” such as Wenzhou, Zhejiang, will still have some time before they arrive at work. It is estimated that it will take at least March until the staff is in place and the market can operate normally.
The landlord’s family is running out of food, so hurry up and start working to make money!
As the epidemic continues, many cloth bosses say that landlords do not have much surplus food. If they do not start working and take orders, they may not be able to support themselves.
A textile boss made an calculation for the editor. Taking a textile factory with 100 looms as an example, the annual rent is 120,000-200,000 yuan. That monthly rent costs more than 10,000 yuan, plus other basic expenses such as machine depreciation. Since they are small businesses, they do not enjoy the preferential rent reduction and exemption offered by state-owned enterprises, and they have to wait until after March 1 to resume work. Calculating this way, it is equivalent to two months of rent being wasted. Including labor, in normal production, a factory generally needs to be equipped with 30-40 workers. When paying wages every month, it costs at least hundreds of thousands. Therefore, if we don’t start work, we will lose at least 200,000 yuan.
In 2019, the negative news in the entire textile industry had a bottom-up transmission to the industrial chain. The terminal clothing market was not prosperous, inventory was high, and demand was low, which led to repeated blows to the confidence of the textile market.
With the current economic downturn and the current epidemic, consumers will become more rational in their consumption concepts, reduce investment in clothing, and pay more attention to cost performance and personalization. Market polarization will intensify. It is expected that small and medium-sized enterprises will face challenges in 2020 Orders have decreased and profits have shrunk. However, enterprises will face many difficulties if they want to transform and upgrade. If conventional manufacturers switch to new fabrics, first of all, they need to invest a lot of money. Secondly, they need to wait for market recognition. If the market recognition is not high, they may lose their wives and lose their troops. Case.
Afterword
Now, an inevitable fact is before us. Business in 2020 is expected to be more difficult than in 2019. “We don’t care about profits in 2020, as long as we As long as you can survive.” This may be the sentiment of many small and medium-sized enterprises. Now I just hope that I can resume work as soon as possible, otherwise all the jokes I saw online will become reality! </p
