Recently, a trader complained to the editor: “Now there are more jobs all of a sudden, the dyeing factory’s shipments have slowed down, and the order delivery time has been extended. Customers have already I was used to shipping goods in one week in the past, but now it takes two weeks or even longer. It is hard to accept it, and they rush me every day. I also go to the dyeing factory every day to rush the goods, and I am very tired.”
Printing and dyeing factories are busy and difficulties in expediting goods return
Recently, traders have experienced troublesome days of difficulty in shipping and expediting goods. But this year, this kind of day is what Boss Bu has been looking forward to for a long time. Since the beginning of August, the increase in warehouse entry from the printing and dyeing side has continued to this day. Nowadays, the number of orders on the trade side is also increasing, especially the launch of market goods, which has added a lot of vitality to the entire industry.
Once the orders on the trading side increase, the printing and dyeing side will quickly reflect the busy status of the large number of orders. Although the operating rate of the printing and dyeing market is still not high, it has remained at around 60%. However, the original 60% operating rate happened to be normal production, but now the same 60% operating rate means queues and crowded shipments.
Domestic orders are gradually increasing, and large orders are returning
The entire downstream industry The chain also shows a recovery trend, and dyeing factories can most intuitively reflect changes in market order volume. According to a salesperson at a dyeing factory that mainly sells market goods, “The market goods started to arrive at the beginning of August, and its entry volume was about 1/3 of the whole day. At the end of August, there were more and more market goods, and the entry volume has already It’s 1/2 of the whole day.”
Market goods are an important part of the annual “Golden Nine and Silver Ten” peak seasons, but orders are also Not to be outdone, it also supports the peak season. At this stage, in addition to market goods, orders for the domestic market are also being placed. According to a trader who specializes in workwear fabrics, although there is no obvious seasonality in workwear fabrics, recent orders have improved significantly. Just a few days ago, an order for 60,000 meters of workwear fabrics was received. The order quantity of this kind of fabric is usually not very large, ranging from several thousand meters to only 20,000 to 30,000 meters, so 60,000 meters is a big order. Receiving such a large order at the end of August may be a signal that the peak season is coming.
Overseas epidemic spreads again, foreign trade orders have recovered weak
However, there are also hidden dangers in the market, and the number of foreign trade orders placed recently is average. The global epidemic continues to spread, adversely affecting the recovery of the overseas textile industry. Forecasts in the Americas show that by December, 317,312 Americans may die from the new coronavirus infection; in Europe, Russia has completed more than 36 million new coronavirus tests; France may implement a second “country lockdown”; in Africa, South Africa It will take at least five years to get out of the haze of the new crown; in Asia, India has seen an increase of more than 50,000 cases per day for 31 consecutive days; epidemics have occurred in various facilities across South Korea.
Although foreign trade orders have also increased compared with the previous period, they lack stamina and are slightly weak. Exports from the United States and some countries in Europe are still largely stagnant, and domestic fabric traders have no orders to accept. Youbu boss said that the recovery of foreign trade will affect the entire textile industry. Many domestic garment companies will eventually export to foreign countries, so the peak season in the second half of the year will also be greatly reduced.
The person in charge of a trading company exporting to Russia, Italy, and Germany said: “Our company’s foreign trade orders are still suspended, and all the foreign trade companies we cooperate with are closed for the holidays. There are no orders to take, and there are no There are signs of recovery, and now all the energy is spent on domestic sales.”
The domestic textile industry is steadily recovering, and the domestic market is gaining momentum
The impact of the global textile trade economy on the domestic textile industry is indeed greater, but there is no need to worry too much. Everything is developing in a better and better direction. In addition to the foreign trade market, the domestic textile market is a big piece of cake that cannot be ignored.
At this stage, as the domestic epidemic prevention and control situation stabilizes, the operation of my country’s textile industry has improved and is in the continuous recovery stage. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, from January to July, the industrial added value of the textile industry above designated size nationwide fell by 6.1% year-on-year, and the decline was 0.6 percentage points narrower than that from January to June. Among them, the industrial added value of the textile industry fell by 3.7% year-on-year, and the decline rate narrowed by 0.8 percentage points from January to June; the textile and clothing industry fell by 11.9%, and the decline rate narrowed by 0.3 percentage points; the chemical fiber manufacturing industry fell by 0.7%, and the decline rate narrowed by 0.7%. 0.5 percentage points.
Data shows that domestic clothing, fabrics, and fiber sectors are constantly recovering, and the domestic sales market The potential remains to be tapped. What’s more noteworthy is that in previous years, market goods and domestic sales orders were placed at the end of August in the second half of the year. However, this wave of market conditions ushered in early August this year. Although the volume was not as good as in previous years, in the transition stage between the traditional off-season and the peak season, domestic orders The improvement has laid the foundation for entering the peak season. As for how prosperous the peak season will be, it also depends on the continuation of autumn and winter fabric orders and the start of spring and summer fabric orders.
