How small and medium-sized textile and garment enterprises can survive the “winter” safely
Industry insiders believe that the appreciation of the RMB and the increase in labor costs have made the meagerly profitable textile industry seriously ill. With the advent of the financial crisis, textile companies may become “terminal” early next year. The successive bankruptcies and runaway incidents seem to be intended to prove this conclusion. The arrival of the “cold winter” has indeed brought a greater impact to export companies.
Financial reports from Wall Street in New York show that the “cold wave” of the financial crisis has hit most areas. Under this harsh condition, my country’s small and medium-sized footwear and apparel enterprises have rushed to prepare “surplus food” for the “winter”.
Jun’an Denim Enterprises and the government work together to integrate resources
Jun’an Town, Shunde, Guangdong is known as the “City of Denim”. Denim garment making and washing processing have a history of more than 20 years, and the denim industry has become the town’s leading industry. However, many years of OEM production have still brought trouble to Jun’an denim industry to a certain extent. When the financial crisis broke out, Jun’an could only be controlled by others.
In this regard, Xie Furong, secretary of the Jun’an Town Party Committee, said that in more mature industrial clusters, the government should play a leading role in guiding small and medium-sized enterprises to integrate into the brand clothing industry chain. It is reported that in order to strengthen and expand the characteristic industry led by denim clothing, the Jun’an Town Committee and the town government have made every effort to promote the “112” project, focusing on building a textile and clothing production base and setting up a large-scale denim cloth, accessories, A clothing display and trading platform, creating two major brands: “China Shunde Western Denim” and “Jun’an Tourism and Vacation”.
In addition, Jun’an’s denim clothing companies also attach great importance to design and sampling. Whenever they have the opportunity, they will participate in industry exhibitions, analyze the trends of the denim clothing market, research new denim clothing styles, and actively participate in design and development. . At present, the product R&D and design departments of about 5-8 denim companies in Jun’an have connected with the design departments of famous European denim clothing companies, and can exchange new products with each other on the Internet.

Pengchang non-woven fabrics company holds together for warmth
Pengchang Town, Xiantao City, Hubei Province is a famous town for non-woven fabrics. In June this year, faced with the “cold wind” of the financial crisis, the production of major small and medium-sized enterprises also came to a halt. In August, after the price of raw materials fell, , and after some rest, we hit the road again.
Yu Ji’an, the deputy mayor in charge of industry, said: “In June and July this year, small and medium-sized enterprises in Pengchang experienced an unprecedented wave of impact, and many enterprises were in a state of semi-stop production. However, the cold winter has now emerged. “Yu Ji’an analyzed that from raw material production, garment processing, to logistics support, Pengchang has formed an industrial cluster. When winter comes in the textile industry, everyone can stay together to keep warm. After raw material prices continued to fall starting in August, these small and medium-sized enterprises that worked together to keep warm had a chance to breathe.
Fu Weifeng, deputy general manager of Xiantao Fushi Protective Products Co., Ltd., said that powerful companies have abundant funds and, according to the fluctuation rules of raw materials, stock up more during the trough period, which is equivalent to preparing winter grain. “The more difficult the time, the more time it is to develop customers.” Because the production cost is relatively low, Fushi can take orders that others would consider to be thin profits or even loss of money. Moreover, Fushi does its own foreign trade, reducing the number of intermediate links, which helps develop potential customers.
Shishi Textile Enterprises Inject New Vitality into Online Transactions
In June of this year, a textile and garment company in Shishi applied for registration with the United Nations through the Internet and finally obtained the registration certificate of “United Nations Procurement Supplier”. The person in charge of the company said that the Internet has given companies a complete export network trading platform, and also given them a golden key to open the international market.
In the face of the financial crisis, most small and medium-sized enterprises tend to only focus on normal production and sales. Normal production must have many objective factors that restrict it, which often results in high costs and is somewhat passive for enterprise development. As an emerging transaction tool, the Internet has more advantages in the global village: on the one hand, there are few intermediate links and the cost is relatively low; on the other hand, it is highly timely, so enterprises can respond quickly.
Relevant experts predict that online trading will become a popular trend in the future. Online sales make up for the geographical deficiencies of shoe and apparel companies. In the future, more complete network services will inject new vitality into textile, shoe and apparel companies in Shishi City. For manufacturers of textiles, shoes and clothing, they can use the huge database on the Internet to understand market changes in a timely manner; for buyers, they can quickly and easily find the products they need.
