From January to October this year, 17,000 laborers in the town were busy making foreign exchange by flying needle lines. The town’s textile and garment industry (enterprises above designated size) achieved a total output value of 1.43 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.4%. Fanchang District’s 2020 policy awards and subsidies for promoting new industrialization and Suncun Town’s textile and garment industry received 2.2763 million yuan.

“We mainly produce Kappa and export to Europe. Under the influence of the epidemic, orders from some factories in Southeast Asia have been transferred to China. What were the previous large orders? Thousands of pieces, but now it has grown to tens of thousands, especially with many orders from the United States.” said Chen Min, chairman of Xinliyuan Garment Co., Ltd.

“There are inheritances, breakthroughs, and new perspectives.” In Suncun Town, the intelligent production and hanging system clothing production lines introduced by the above-mentioned clothing enterprises are operating at full capacity. In the garment workshop, workers are working methodically on the intelligent hanging assembly line. The cut fabrics are sent to the hanging rail system above the workers’ heads. They are like riding a roller coaster, constantly flowing in the air to the next process. After several moves, a brand new garment is released.

“The intelligent production hanging system is 50% more efficient than the original traditional production method. In the past, it took half a month for the company to receive an order from pattern design to delivery. Now it only takes three to five days to complete. Moreover, the output andquality of clothing have been significantly improved.” said Yu Chuanhua, the person in charge of Anhui Zeqian Clothing Group Co., Ltd.

With the continuous advancement of digital technology in clothing production, the use of automated equipment for flow operations will effectively solve the development problems of the clothing industry and help improve the overall efficiency of the clothing industry. In the past two years, Suncun Town’s regulated garment enterprises have actively invested a large amount of money in digital transformation and upgrading of their factories, making their garment production more intelligent and accelerating their efficiency.

Suncun currently presents a “small but beautiful” industrial development pattern, with leading enterprises and key enterprises beginning to play a leading and radiating role. But it goes without saying that the town is also facing some unfavorable factors, such as insufficient motivation for entrepreneurship and innovation, unclear development plans, weak brand awareness, etc. All these problems need to be overcome and solved in future exploration and development.
