The Chinese New Year is coming in two weeks, and the order-taking work in the textile market has basically ended, and the payment collection stage has now come. However, the editor heard that a certain textile boss has recently received a large foreign trade order!
“At least 3 million meters are said to be delivered after the year. However, the boss is very anxious and there is no time to do it himself. He is planning to outsource the production of 600 air-jet looms. It should be delivered directly after the year.” A person in the textile circle said.
Since the order was for rayon, it had to be produced with air-jet looms, so the textile boss was looking for manufacturers with large volumes of air-jet looms in the market for processing. Currently, one manufacturer has fully started production of 200 units. It had already been on holiday for a long time, but now it is It can only be postponed to the 12th. Compared with taking a holiday, who can resist the temptation of making a fortune near the end of the year.
Foreign trade is taking off and the future is promising
Before the policy was relaxed, the foreign trade market had never returned to normal levels. Three points depended on domestic trade and seven points depended on foreign trade. In recent years, the epidemic has prevented the potential of foreign trade from being stimulated. This has also led to the fact that although textile workers have been receiving orders, But the money earned was very little. You must know that foreign trade orders are generally known for their large quantities and sufficient profits. Some textile bosses rely on foreign trade orders to become bigger and stronger. However, in the past few years, which have been plagued by the epidemic, foreign trade orders have been lacking. Now, as soon as the policy is relaxed, there will be The textile boss received a large order of 3 million meters, which seems to indicate that more foreign trade orders will be issued next year.
In fact, since the policy was liberalized, many manufacturers that were supposed to have their holidays at the end of December have postponed their holidays. It is obvious that the demand is indeed greater. There are no longer one or two cases of postponing holidays because of rush for orders. Many manufacturers are still taking holidays near the end of the year. When it comes to receiving orders, some time ago it was said that some manufacturers delayed their holidays for a week in order to order several thousand meters of orders. This time, 3 million meters of orders were too late to be produced and directly outsourced for processing. The “closed door” at the end of the year also gave textile bosses a glimpse of next year. market hope.
Raise prices and improve the status quo
In 2022, while there is a lack of orders, there is also a lack of profits. Although many textile bosses complain that the market is not good without orders, the factories have been busy. The loom operation rate has not been high throughout 2022, with the highest It may only be about 70% at that time, but at least the textile bosses are producing orders instead of blindly producing inventory with the looms running at full speed. The reason why they dare not produce inventory is precisely because of the scarcity of profits. You must know that there are many routines in the market this year. The market price of fabrics is lower than the cost price. It can be said that everyone is competing at low prices. Some textile bosses said that this year, apart from some old customers placing orders, they can still negotiate. Orders from new customers are basically obtained at low prices. Rather than producing it yourself, it is better to get the goods from outside and earn the price difference.
It is a sure thing that demand will pick up in 2023, but what really needs to change is the price. Stop using low prices to obtain orders, say no to customers’ price cuts, and raise fabric prices to normal levels. You can make less money but not lose money. Everyone sticks to the bottom line and makes money together instead of randomly disrupting market prices at low prices.
In recent years, the problem of polarization has become more obvious due to the epidemic. Some people are happy and some are worried. Although demand will pick up next year due to the liberalization of policies, textile bosses will still have difficulty in accepting orders. There is no need for polarization in 2023. Doubts will continue. Dear textile people, are you ready to face the challenge?
