Although the off-season is here, the orders are not very low. There are so many hot-selling fabrics recently. I just said that the T8 fabric on the front is going to be a hot seller, and there is a stretch fabric on the back that is on sale.
“British style has been on sale again recently, several times A customer came over to ask about the price and placed a lot of orders, but we are now facing this problem, which is very difficult to solve…” a textile boss said excitedly and helplessly.
There is a shortage of network workers and customers are anxious to ship goods
There is a high temperature of 37 or 8 degrees ahead. Oh my god, there are “fireworks” behind me with winds reaching level 10-13. Factory workers are also very responsive to the situation. Some are asking for leave and some are resigning. This year, everyone seems not to be particularly concerned about the shortage of workers. Last year, due to the epidemic, everyone was Everyone is worried about recruiting workers, but this year they have ignored this problem that would have existed even if there was no epidemic.
“There is a shortage of network workers in our factory and there are customers We don’t dare to accept orders for Ying Lun Slant because it’s too slow to produce. The customer requires a daily output of 5,000 meters, but the factory can only produce 2,000 meters.” said a textile boss in the Shengze area.
British Slant, a four-way stretch product with a wide range of uses that can be used for both suits and trousers, has gained considerable popularity in recent years. During the same period of the epidemic last year, this fabric was sought after by a large number of textile bosses in the market. It was also popular in the market for a period of time in March and April this year, so it is not surprising that it is selling well now.
Generally speaking, the British bias production process is more complicated. The warp yarn raw material uses one-step polyester-polyester composite yarn plus spandex, and it also needs to be twisted after the web. Raw materials can only be produced using traditional small network machines, which are slow, low-capacity and very costly. Coupled with the shortage of network workers, orders are shipped even more slowly.
I am not afraid of not having an order, but I am afraid that I will not accept the order!
Due to rising raw material prices in the early stage, textile bosses often took orders that were unprofitable or even at a loss because they were afraid that factories would be unable to maintain normal operations. As time comes to July, the off-season atmosphere has become very intense, and the order situation has also decreased compared with the previous period. However, textile bosses can still receive orders, and there is still a steady stream of hot-selling products in the market. However, it is difficult to raise the price, mainly due to Affected by the off-season, most customer orders are for stockpiling. If the price increases, customers will not pay the bill.
The problem faced by textile bosses now is no longer no profits from early orders. With the arrival of the traditional peak season of autumn and winter fabrics, more problems will follow. .
It was mentioned in the early stage that the textile boss was because of the cost After taking the order due to various reasons such as rising prices and hot weather, I regretted it, and the pressure on my shoulders suddenly became much heavier.
Now that July is about to end, orders have gradually increased since August last year, and demand has slowly picked up. The orders placed now are not necessarily for stocking up. , maybe they are really preparing for autumn and winter clothing in the second half of the year, so some customers have begun to ask factories to speed up shipments. In addition, because factories are still limiting production, textile bosses are really afraid to accept some orders.
Will the market soar in the second half of the year?
Although textile bosses currently have various concerns about accepting orders, this seems to prove that everyone has great hopes for the second half of the year. It can be seen from the several fabrics that they are all better-selling fabrics in previous years. The orders for pongee and nylon may not be as large as before, but there are still such orders being placed. Generally speaking, the recent orders Although the volume is not as good as the previous period, it is still very considerable.
Recent raw material prices, except for spandex products, It is still relatively stable, and there may be a wave of increase in the later period, but this is a normal phenomenon in the peak season. However, there should be no promotions in the near future. Textile bosses can stock up on some raw materials in advance. There will be no special circumstances in the second half of this year. The market conditions should be relatively promising.
However, we must be cautious here. The current phenomena may indicate that the market will improve in the second half of the year, but this is not 100%. We still need to be cautious where we should be cautious. , textile bosses should always be prepared to prevent unnecessary losses…
