Currently, some companies have resumed work on the 10th. Companies can resume work after filling in their resumption applications and passing the review. At the same time, China Oriental Silk Market has also A notice was issued that the market will open on February 21.
February 15, Zhejiang China Textile City Group also issued a notice that it will officially resume work on February 18th!
Then the epidemic is still at its peak During the strict prevention and control phase, will companies resume work as scheduled?
Resumption requirements are strict, and production capacity may be increased at the end of the month
Mr. Chen, who owns 80 looms, said that the No. 21 store will open as scheduled, but the factory will definitely not be able to open it, and it will basically have to wait until the end of the month. Now the workers are not here and the machines can’t be run. It’s pointless to run some of the machines with only a few local workers coming to work. Once the machine is turned on, the cost is not only the rent, but also water, electricity, wages, raw materials, equipment losses, etc. It is money, and it is not cost-effective to stop production.
Mr. Chen is not the only one who has this idea. Mr. Xu, who has 300 looms in Wujiang, also lamented: “Our sales department is in Shaoxing and the factory is in Wujiang. According to the current situation, if the epidemic is controlled and the provincial borders are opened, our sales department will open normally. Now the roads here are blocked Due to the closure, buses have been suspended in many places. Even if foreign employees come back, they will have to be quarantined for 14 days. It would be ideal to be able to open them by the end of the month.”
In fact, the concerns of enterprises are not unreasonable. If the start-up rate cannot be improved and the production capacity cannot keep up, then there is no point in hastily resuming work. In addition, prevention and control issues after resumption of work are still difficult, and masks are in most short supply. Taking a company with 30 employees as an example, the number of masks per day is 30, which means about 900 masks per month. Including losses, the number is almost 1,000.
According to the National Development and Reform Commission, as of February 11, the national mask production capacity utilization rate has reached 94%, and the production capacity utilization rate of medical N95 masks has reached 128%. Since February 2, China’s mask production has been increasing day by day, but it is still far behind the actual gap. It is still “hard to find one mask” on the market. Although the government has put some masks on the market, they need to be snapped up. Each person can only buy 5 ordinary medical masks every 5 days. If companies do not have sufficient supply channels, it is very difficult to buy thousands of masks now.
At present, the production of enterprises is stagnant. Will it affect the acceptance of orders?
Closing business at home and resuming work is one of the issues that everyone is most concerned about, but during the epidemic, can we still receive orders and whether previous orders have been cancelled? The situation is something that everyone is more concerned about.
Order cancellations are only a minority
Most domestic logistics are currently It is still in a stagnant state, and a few have recovered, but timeliness is not guaranteed. At the same time, although some dyeing factories can enter warehouses, order colors, and color, dyeing factories in Yixing, Jiaxing, Shaoxing and other places have not started operations, and the printing and dyeing end has not resumed, so orders cannot be completed. In addition, logistics is difficult to start, and domestic customers are basically in the waiting stage.
Due to the outbreak, many countries have canceled flights to and from China, and freight problems have become a hurdle. After major airlines extended the deadline for “cancellation of flights to and from China”, on the 13th, Deutsche Post officially announced on its official website that it would stop shipping packages to China, and the Netherlands Post has also stopped issuing orders; Belgium Post and France Post There is zero space for next week.
Some companies previously stated that due to the seriousness of the epidemic, Coupled with the slow logistics, some foreign customers have canceled orders. However, most companies still say that order cancellations are only a small number, and most foreign customers are also in the waiting stage and will not cancel orders at will. On the one hand, they have already paid part of the payment, and if they cancel, they will also have to pay liquidated damages. On the other hand, in a short period of time, except for China, they could not find a suitable supplier and could only continue to wait.
The demand still exists and it will not affect the acceptance of orders
” It does not affect the order taking. I have taken several orders at home in the past few days, and today I took another one. Although it is not a big one, it also shows that customers trust us and the demand exists, but it is more difficult at this stage.” Mr. Chen said.
Although the current situation seems to have pressed the pause button on everything, the peopleWhen it comes to food, clothing, housing and transportation, “clothing” ranks first. Market demand still exists. However, for companies making spring and summer orders, it affects expected sales, but it does not affect autumn and winter orders. Or think about it from another perspective, women are still the main consumers of clothing. In view of their “strong” attitude in buying clothes, they buy less clothes in spring, and they always want to make up for autumn and winter clothes, no matter if they are in short supply or not. Retaliatory consumption is most appropriate for female consumers. Demand is higher in autumn and winter, which may make up for the shortcomings in the first half of the year.
The requirements for resumption of work are strict. In fact, it is a very good measure for both enterprises and individuals. After the country began to resume work one after another, epidemic prevention and control has reached its most strenuous stage, but we must not relax for a moment. Only when the epidemic is defeated can we usher in spring and the same goes for the textile industry.
I hope the bosses can take more orders at home, and work at full capacity after resuming work, with plenty of profits!
