The last time we mentioned that 3 million meters of monofilament rayon was to be processed into 600 air-jet looms was only two days ago. Now another 3 million meters of pongee fabric order has been placed.
“I just received an order for 3 million meters of pongee. After signing the contract, I will come over and start working on the machine directly after a year.” said a textile boss.
Different from the bottom-line low prices of conventional fabrics in 2022, although the price of this 3 million meters of pongee is still not high, at least it has profits in it.
Reject the evil trend of low prices
“Although the machine benefit of this order is less than 100 yuan, it is very good to be profitable for conventional fabrics. Fresh fabrics are definitely more expensive than inventory. The customer actually wanted to lower the price but was directly rejected by us.” Textile Textile the boss said.
Because there are no orders, textile bosses use low prices to compete. Because there is no profit, everyone in the market is complaining. Since 2020, the market has mainly sold goods at low prices. It is time for this “evil trend” to be changed in 2023 .
Today there are 3 million meters of monofilament rayon, and tomorrow there are 3 million meters of pongee. If we continue to place orders like this, are we still afraid that we won’t be able to receive orders next year? Assuming that everyone can receive orders, there is no need to compete with low prices. Don’t use low prices to disrupt the market rules. Fabrics costing 1.5 yuan/meter sell for 1.3 yuan/meter. Don’t continue this phenomenon. Do business. There must be money to be made, and there will be a day when the boss, no matter how big the business is, cannot sustain the loss-making business.
Although there have been frequent reports of big orders recently, some textile bosses are still worried. The holidays are just around the corner, but there are no orders on hand. What will be produced next year? Of course, there are many textile bosses who have not received orders yet. Compared with the demand in today’s market compared with the heyday of previous years, there is really a huge difference. However, every year at the end of the year, there will be a wave of market trends. At the end of the year Taking orders is actually the norm, and it is still unknown what the situation will be like next year.
Be alert! “Happy closing”
Last year, the market also ushered in a wave of “closed sales”. I took orders a year ago to produce the next year. I originally thought that the market in the coming year would be good, but I never thought that it would be the worst year in history. Of course, a few days ago, because of In the face of the epidemic, everything is unknown. With the current liberalization of policies, although it cannot be said that the market can return to the heyday before 2018, it will at least be better than the three years of the epidemic.
After liberalization, all orders in the foreign trade market can be placed. Not only will logistics be more convenient, but textile bosses can also go abroad to receive orders, because the problems caused by the epidemic can also be resolved one by one. The textile market has been worse for three years. It’s more, and it’s time to get better.
Although the current order situation and the market environment indicate that the market will improve next year, but with the lessons of previous years, we should not be blindly confident even if the market improves. According to the inventory days of sample companies monitored by Silkdu.com, the current local The inventory is at 36.9 days. Under the premise of digesting the inventory at the end of the year, the number of inventory days is actually still at a high level. It is obvious that the inventory at the end of this year is not as good as last year. The inventory in the same period last year was 34.2 days, and the inventory near the holidays was as low as 32.8 days. This shows that the actual inventory is 36.9 days. Inventory consumption at the end of this year is not as good as last year. We still need to be cautious in producing inventory at the beginning of next year. Remember that inventory is not cash. Excessive inventory will only increase pressure.
There is only one week left before the Chinese New Year. Most manufacturers have stopped production for the holidays. Only a small number are still rushing to work. Basically, they will stop this week. Next year, textile people will only face more challenges. It is impossible to do it in a market where supply exceeds demand. As long as everyone is good, only by constantly improving themselves can we survive in the highly competitive textile market.
