Seeing that August, which most textile people are looking forward to, has arrived, has the market improved?
Obviously, judging from the current situation, there does not seem to be…
” In a certain area in the central and western regions, 20,000 looms are half running and half stopped. The market is not good. There are fake looms and all knitting machines are stopped.” said a textile boss in Shengze area.
The product is not profitable, and the textile boss does not want to have an order Continue
This year, although many gray fabrics are not sold at low prices like last year, the price and profit of gray fabrics this year are also extremely low. Even if the price was low last year, the price of raw materials was also It is at a low level, but this year is different. The raw materials have been at a high level since the beginning of the year, with several promotions in the middle. However, the sales did not go well at the beginning. In June, the order situation finally improved, but the polyester manufacturers’ promotional routines were cancelled. In just one month, the price of raw materials continued to rise, but it was difficult to increase the price of gray fabrics.
“Profits from orders this year have been very low. Some can only maintain looms, and some even lose money. Taking orders is entirely to protect customers. Although profits are low , but the demand is still there. It mainly depends on whether the price can be increased in the future. If the price of raw materials cannot be increased and the price of raw materials is still high, some loss-making orders will not be accepted.” A textile boss in Shengze area said.
Profits from four-sided elastic products that have been hot-selling this year In fact, it is not high. Due to the high price of spandex, many products are not dominant. There are also conventional fabrics such as nylon and pongee. The wind blows very hard, but the profit of nylon is only four per loom. Fifty yuan, some pongee products can only maintain the cost, and the millions of meters of pongee orders mentioned earlier have lost money due to the price increase of raw materials in the later period, so the order volume this year is OK Yes, but profits are difficult to guarantee.
Repeated epidemics abroad make it difficult for foreign trade to take off
The prosperity of the textile market depends on three factors Seventy percent of domestic demand depends on foreign trade. However, the epidemic situation abroad has been recurring recently. India, Vietnam and other South and Southeast Asian countries have always been our important textile exporters. Textile people engaged in foreign trade have more or less customers and regions in such countries and regions. Order.
Although in recent years, with the textile industry in these countries Industrial development has become our strong competitor internationally. The impact of the epidemic will cause the phenomenon of orders returning, but those orders returning will not be divided equally, and more of them will flow to the hands of large companies. The polarized textile market has become a common thing. Small weaving companies will still face a more difficult situation, and it will take time for orders to return. It is difficult for the market to improve quickly in a short period of time.
In addition, most of the early orders placed in the domestic market are for stockpiling. Perhaps everyone is optimistic about the market in the second half of the year, but don’t forget At the beginning of the new year, the market ushered in a peak season. Many weaving manufacturers could produce four or five loads of goods a day, and it was common for production and sales to exceed 100. However, this market came to an abrupt end at the end of March, and the reason for this market is exactly It’s because of stockpiling.
Are you still optimistic about the market situation in August?
Previously, most textile bosses expressed optimism about the market in August, because in 2020, which was severely hit by the epidemic, after the market stagnated for nearly half a year, a turnaround began in August. And we have ushered in the long-lost “Golden Nine and Silver Ten”, mainly because the epidemic situation began to improve in the second half of last year and stimulated people’s desire to buy, which led to a turning point in the second half of last year. Will it be the same this year?
Obviously, judging from the current situation, The market situation did not change in early August. As mentioned above, the 20,000 looms in the central and western regions were half-started and half-stopped. It can be seen that the recent market is still “stagnant”.
Mainly because of the excessively high raw material prices and too many early orders, which many traders have not digested, and because the profit of the orders is too low, the weavers want to Wait until the price rebounds before taking orders. Of course, as long as there is demand, it is not difficult to increase prices.
In general, although the demand in the domestic market is not very large and the foreign trade market has not fully recovered, as long as there is demand in the second half of the year, there will be a boom. According to the current market situation, this turning point has not yet arrived. As for whether there will be such a turning point, the editor believes that we can still look forward to it in the future.
