Shaoxing China Textile City will open on February 18, Shengze China Oriental Silk Market will open on February 21, and Nantong Dieshiqiao Home Textile Market will open in batches from February 24… Guangzhou Zhongdabu City, which has postponed the start of construction within a time limit, is already making preparations for the start of construction. What also attracts our attention as the construction starts in various places is that local governments are trying every means to “rob people.” Shengze, Haining, Jiashan: charter cars, charter flights, charter special trains, Huzhou: invest 100 million yuan in subsidies, Ningbo: add 500 yuan for an extra worker…
Workers failed to arrive in time, and encountered a “labor shortage” on the opening day. Textile markets in various places were troubled by low operating rates, but the clothing market season We are extremely cautious and cannot wait endlessly for the textile industry to fully resume production. The end result is not only a lack of production time, but also the transfer of orders and the loss of production opportunities. But fortunately, there is an option in the textile market that allows some companies to tide over the difficulties.
The finished fabric market steps forward
The finished fabric color matching market is very common and can be found in textile markets all over the country. Time helps you when it comes to production, and this time is no exception.
The shortage of workers has made the “operation” of many textile factories in vain, and the operating rate of 10% to 20% cannot satisfy production at all. In the fabric market, orders left over from the year before and new orders placed after the year appear at the same time. Not to mention how crowded the production will be, whether those machines and equipment that have been stopped for more than a month and workers who have been idle for dozens of days can enter in time. Whether the working condition ensures product quality is in question. It would be best to delay the order and avoid the current time, but the nature of clothing makes this almost impossible.
A cloth boss who has been in the fabric business for more than ten years said, “We mainly make nylon, polyester taffeta and other autumn and winter clothing fabrics. The general production time is only half a year, from December to the next year. In May, all fabric varieties basically require finishing, which takes a long time. However, recently the entire textile industry has been completely suspended or semi-suspended. There is no production time for our orders. In order to catch up with the delivery date, they recently ran The most popular market is the finished product color matching market. If the color and quantity are suitable, we will buy it directly.”
The finished fabric market has many limitations
Although the finished fabric market has performed well in the fabric shortage caused by the factory shutdown caused by the epidemic, it is not designed for the textile market after the factory shutdown. . Normally, they can only meet general urgent orders and small orders, and they also need to replenish goods through various textile factories in a timely manner. Once the factory cannot produce normally for a long time, their fabric reserves will be “stretched” and it will be difficult to meet the needs of various customers. .
Recently, a cloth boss engaged in textile foreign trade mentioned that he A foreign trade customer needs a high-elastic pongee black 10,000 meters. Due to the simple production process, production can normally be completed in the dyeing factory in about a week, but this is obviously impractical now.
So the customer proposed to buy in the finished product market, but the quantity was too much. They looked for many suppliers and finally found one with sufficient quantity. However, the price was far higher than expected and reached more than 6 yuan/meter. It required more than 6 yuan/meter. I know that the price of this gray fabric is less than 3 yuan/meter. They are torn between producing in a dyeing factory and paying air freight, or buying high-priced fabrics directly from the finished product market.
Although the finished product color matching market still has shortcomings such as limited fabric variety and quantity, and high prices in special periods, once these shortcomings are overcome, it will play a more important role in the textile market.
In recent years, many finished product color matching companies have “deeply dug” into a single variety to expand variety specifications and ensure quantity supply. And by processing a considerable number of orders at one time, we can gain the opportunity to negotiate prices with gray fabric factories and printing and dyeing factories, reduce fabric costs, and reach prices that are difficult to reach in the general market.
The entire textile industry has been affected by the pneumonia epidemic, but the stagnation of production does not mean the cessation of sales. The finished fabric market is an important way to ensure the delivery of customer orders. By the time the epidemic is over, many finished product color matching companies will have exhausted their inventory and completed the withdrawal of funds, which will be conducive to the production, stocking and development of new products in the next stage of this market. </p
