August is coming to an end, and the market situation seems to be starting to pick up. Living up to expectations, the “spring” for some textile bosses has finally arrived.
“Recently, orders for three-layer jacquard have been extremely popular, and our factory has no time to even run all the machines on it,” said a textile boss.
Three-layer jacquard is a popular fabric in autumn and winter and is often used in the production of cotton clothing. Now is the golden moment for placing orders. I can guess that it will be a hot seller, but I didn’t expect it to be so popular that the weaver has no time to produce all 50 looms. Moreover, in this current situation In the era of low profits, its machine profits are extraordinary.
Machine profit is as high as 300 yuan/day
“The market price of this fabric is 11 yuan/meter, the raw material cost of gray fabric is 4-5 yuan/meter, the labor cost is about 0.12-0.13 yuan/shuttle, and the machine profit can be 300 yuan/day.” The textile boss said.
The machine profit of 300 yuan/day is indeed ridiculously high in today’s textile market where the cost price is higher than the market price. Looking back, the last fabric with a machine profit of over 100 yuan was a rayon double pack in May. Bamboo T400, but the two fabrics are similar in that they are niche fabrics. Speaking of niche fabrics, the machine profit of 300 yuan/day is reasonable. After all, not all manufacturers can make money from niche fabrics. Yes, but for niche fabrics, the machine profit of 300 yuan/day is not high. In March, the profit of a curved silk and Tencel fabric was as high as 580 yuan/day, so the profit of niche fabrics is only higher but not the highest.
Regardless of the good profits of niche fabrics, in fact conventional fabrics still have poor profits. At present, the market is still not seeing improvement in conventional varieties. It is really difficult to sell without some characteristics. The prices of some conventional fabrics are still at a low level. Under the premise of difficulty in raising prices, textile bosses just accept the good news and sell without losing money. It is impossible to make money. OK. However, the number of hot-selling fabrics has increased recently.
Autumn and winter orders are being placed one after another, is the market expected to improve?
From mid-August to the present, not to mention the profit situation, the best-selling varieties have been one after another, from double-layer elastic cool silk cotton, diamond silk pongee to imitation wool fabrics, etc., which indicate that the market is actually improving, autumn and winter Fabrics are being released gradually.
But the actual situation is that having orders is one thing, but on the other hand, it still depends on profits. For orders without profits, textile bosses would rather not have orders. Instead of saying that if they produce orders without profits, it is better to go outside to get goods, this weaver and trader What’s the difference? The only advantage of being able to control costs is gone, so what’s the point?
The biggest problem in the current market is still the instability of profits. Customers keep lowering prices again and again. Even if the market improves, it will be in vain. Some old weaving manufacturers cannot keep up with their productivity and their products are not novel and cannot give them any advantages. Even if the market improves, it will be in vain. Orders were obtained at low prices. After a long time, I found that even though I worked for a year, there seemed to be no money in my pocket. I was not doing it to make money, but to survive. In the end, I found that the manufacturers with advantages were making more and more money. Advantageous manufacturers are increasingly losing money. Innovating is the fastest way to change a manufacturer’s survival model. However, some manufacturers have no ability to delve into new products and rely on low-cost fabrics to make a little profit. If they cannot survive, they can only say goodbye to this fiercely competitive textile market.
Is the market improving? That’s true. Orders may not have been issued to all enterprises. At least two-thirds of textile bosses have received orders for autumn and winter fabrics. There is still hope for the Golden Nine and Silver Ten. Of course, everyone knows that today’s market is not as good as before. Even if Even in the peak season, some textile bosses find it difficult to take orders. The cake is so big and it is impossible for everyone to get it. Of course, you have to learn to fight for it yourself. Obtaining it at a low price is currently the first choice of the bosses, but this is not advisable.
