“Raw materials have risen too much, and we are already planning to stop production…” a textile boss who had no orders in hand said painfully.
Since the end of June, the rise in crude oil has caused polyester prices to plummet. The price keeps rising, causing some textile bosses who have no orders on hand to fall into a desperate situation. They can’t help but complain: Are they going to be deprived of their right to even weave inventory?
High-priced raw materials are not enough to make soup, so a holiday is the wisest choice
Only this week Two days later, polyester yarn has increased twice, and even a polyester factory has made a second price adjustment in one day. There has been no promotion for half a month, and with the price increases for many days in a row, this makes textile bosses who have no orders even more worried. I have no desire to buy silk anymore.
In fact, from June to now, the market has been In a polarized mode, I have previously chatted with several textile bosses and found that only a few textile bosses said that the order situation in June was better, while the vast majority still said that orders had significantly decreased in the off-season, compared with orders in May. In terms of volume, orders in June were even more pitiful.
Due to the weekly promotion of polyester yarn starting from April, textile bosses will buy some at bargain prices. Compared with the price at the beginning of the year, the price from April to Saturday The price of polyester yarn at the end of the month is still relatively low. Due to the production limit, the operating rate of looms is not high. Textile bosses use this “advantage” to produce some inventory appropriately even if there are no orders.
But since the price of polyester yarn started to rise at the end of June, textile bosses simply cannot bear the loss-making operation of using high-priced raw materials to produce inventory, so many textile bosses have The idea of taking a vacation came up.
But fortunately it is the off-season, and I can still Occasionally, when production and electricity are limited, it is a good choice for textile bosses to take this opportunity to adjust.
Now, not to mention those textile bosses who do not have orders on hand and are considering taking a holiday, those who do have orders on hand are also in dire straits.
The price of raw materials has increased, but the fabrics dare not increase! Customers don’t buy it
“We don’t dare to increase the price of fabrics. Recently, the price of spandex has increased again. The four-way elastic products have not increased yet. If they increase, we are afraid of customers. If you can’t accept it, only new orders will increase appropriately.” said a textile boss in Shengze area.
Textile bosses without orders can take holidays and stop production, but textile bosses with orders can The boss can only bite the bullet and produce. Some weaving companies can still order in June, but they don’t know that the orders they have on hand have no profit at all. The profit of a loom that has been selling well recently is only 50 yuan a day, and many fabrics are losing money. On the edge, the textile boss even said frankly: With this little profit now, he can only maintain the looms.
In the current off-season, even if the price of raw materials rises, it is difficult for fabric prices to rise. Unless it is the peak season, all kinds of fabrics are in short supply. Textile bosses Only then do we have the guts to talk about price increases. In the current situation where customers choose manufacturers, textile bosses can only take orders when they come in and maintain the normal operation of the factory. However, as the price of raw materials continues to rise in the later period, even if there is an order, textile bosses must consider whether the order will be a loss and whether it is necessary to accept it. After all, a long-term loss-making transaction is worse than no business at all.
From the current situation, manufacturers without orders can borrow Give yourself a short holiday due to factors such as production deadlines, power rations, and hot weather. After all, it is uneconomical to produce inventory due to the surge in raw materials. However, companies with orders must make appropriate fabrics after the orders on hand are finished. Although most of the current autumn and winter fabrics are for the purpose of stocking up, one day the demand will rise, the identities of buyers and sellers will be reversed, and money will naturally be made.
