Haizhu Zhongda Cloth Market is under suspicion. Will it be relocated?
Recently, the topic of Zhongda Cloth Market in Haizhu District has become a bit hot.
Recently, the WeChat public account “Zhongda International Innovation Valley Textile Industry Federation” posted another message. After comprehensive research and judgment, the Zhongda Textile Business District has not yet met the conditions for resumption of the market. The market was originally scheduled to resume on December 5. The notice is suspended, and the specific resumption time will be notified later.
Previously, the WeChat public account “Guangzhou International Textile Network” posted an article “We are back!” Guangzhou International Textile City officially resumes trading at 12 noon on December 2! “, “Pearl River International Textile City” issued an article “Thank you for waiting, safe reopening of the market, we are waiting for you in Pearl River! 》. However, the relevant posts were later deleted.
Immediately afterwards, in the early morning of December 2, the WeChat public account “Zhongda International Innovation Valley Textile Industry Federation” issued an article to postpone the resumption of the Zhongda Textile Business District to December 5 in order to curb the spread of the epidemic.
Although the resumption time of the Zhongda Textile Business District has been delayed again and again, many merchants still expressed their understanding that safe production is the most important.
According to the latest news from the WeChat public account “Zhongda International Innovation Valley Textile Industry Federation”, regarding the current difficulties in resumption of business in the business district, the Haizhu District Party Committee and District Government have set up a special work class to speed up the research of solutions and eliminate various problems. This will lay a solid foundation for the early resumption of business in the business district. He also called on everyone to actively cooperate with the government in preparing various preparations before resuming the market, consciously abide by relevant regulations, and strive for an early resumption of the market.
As everyone knows, in this round of epidemic in Guangzhou, the situation in Haizhu District is the most severe, and the Kanglu area of Fengyang Street has become the “hardest hit area” of the epidemic.
Why is this so? Zhang Yi, deputy director of the Guangzhou Municipal Health Commission, once said that these urban villages have many handshake buildings, mostly small streets and narrow alleys, and the entire area has poor air circulation. “When there are infected people, the expelled virus can easily form aerosols within the area that are difficult to dissipate in a short period of time. At this time, residents living upstairs, downstairs, in nearby buildings, and those passing through them will not be protected if they are not properly protected. , are extremely susceptible to infection.”
Relevant statistics show that more than 100,000 people live in this area per square kilometer, and there are more than 5,200 garment factories and warehousing companies, most of which are upstream and downstream of the textile industry, clothing, accessories, etc.Labor-intensiveindustry.
The Zhongda Textile Business District is also located here.
In the early days of reform and opening up, the industrialization of the Pearl River Delta first started with the textile and garment industry. Relying on the “three to one supplement, front store and back factory” model, the “Four Little Tigers” represented by Dongguan, Shunde, Nanhai, and Zhongshan have won clothing orders from Hong Kong and Macao. With the surge in orders, these garment factories are facing difficulties in purchasing raw and auxiliary materials.
At this time, Zhongda Cloth Market came into being. In the early days, the Zhongda Cloth Market was just a gathering place for street stalls. However, it quickly developed and expanded with its unique geographical advantages, solving the raw material difficulties of garment enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region, and gradually grew into one of the top textile and clothing accessories markets in the country.
Since the development, there has been a saying in the market that “National textiles look to South China, and South China textiles look to medium-sized enterprises.”
As the leading textile raw material distribution center in China, Zhongda Textile Business District has gathered more than a dozen cloth trading parks, 63 professional markets, and 23,000 shops, with more than 100,000 direct employees and more than 2 million people in related industries. people.
The urban villages filled with garment workshops nearby have also become an important part of the entire garment ecological chain, including Kangle, Lujiang, Shangyong, Datang, Longtan and other urban villages.
It is not difficult to imagine that when the epidemic strikes, once the Zhongda Textile Business District suspends operations and all wholesale markets suspend production and operation activities, the impact will be considerable.
The Zhongda Cloth Market is a bright spot in the urban development process of Guangzhou, and it is also a long-standing and difficult problem in the transformation and upgrading process of Guangzhou’s professional market.
As early as 2009, in response to relevant experts’ suggestions that Zhongda Cloth Market “accelerate the separation of commerce and logistics and reconstruct the trade supply chain”, the Guangzhou Municipal Government responded that it was studying and guiding Zhongda Cloth Market’s logistics, warehousing, processing and other industries to gradually Educate to relevant parks in Qingyuan City.
At that time, there were roughly evenly divided voices opposing and supporting the relocation.
Three years have passed. After the impact of this round of epidemic, the transformation and upgrading of the Zhongda cloth market is even more urgent.
Fortunately, the authorities have also taken preliminary actions.
Recently, a “Guangzhou Haizhu District-Qingyuan City Industrial Gradient Orderly Transfer Investment Promotion Conference” jointly participated by relevant leaders of the Guangzhou and Qing Dynasty governments, more than 150 enterprises, and more than 30 business associations. Little information.
The deputy director of Haizhu District mentioned that due to the constraints of urban spatial form, fire protection conditions, historical factors, etc., the scale of processing factories in Haizhu District is generally small, and the development prospects of enterprises are also limited.
In accordance with the work arrangements of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government on promoting the orderly transfer of industries and promoting coordinated regional development, Guangzhou and Qing Dynasty are carrying out in-depth cooperation to transfer the processing and manufacturing industry of the Zhongda Textile and Garment Business District to the Guangqing Special Economic Cooperation Zone , promote “Guangzhou Headquarters + Qingyuan Base”�””Guangzhou R&D + Qingyuan Manufacturing” and “Guangzhou Incubation + Qingyuan Industrialization” cooperation models are deeply practiced to jointly build a “modern light industrial textileindustrial cluster” and strive to create an industrial gradient Transfer demonstration site.
This transfer will not only provide a good opportunity for the development and growth of enterprises, but also help build a more complete market industry chain and promote the in-depth integrated development of the fashion textile industry in the two places. Haizhu District has established a special work class to speed up the formulation of relevant support policies to promote the orderly transfer of Guangqing industries, by reducing or exempting the rent of production and operation sites, providing free employee dormitories and talent apartments, A series of measures such as equipment relocation costs and equipment purchase subsidies have encouraged a number of textile processing manufacturing industries to take the lead in transferring.
So, where is the new acceptance point? This meeting also gave the answer.
The deputy mayor of Qingyuan proposed that Qingyuan is not far away, but Qingyuan is closer. Guangzhou North Zhongda Fashion Science and Technology City has a superior location and complete supporting services. It is the best undertaking point for the orderly transfer of Haizhu District’s textile and garment industry to Qingyuan.
Information shows that Guangzhou North Zhongda Fashion Technology City, built by Zhonghua Group and Yunshang Zhicheng Group, is located in the Guangqing Special Economic Cooperation Zone. It is planned and promoted by the Qingyuan Municipal People’s Government and China Textile Construction Planning Institute. Planning and design, with a total planned land area of 10,000 acres, to create a large beauty, cosmetics, leather goods and bags, jewelry, new materials, Intelligent manufacturing and other digital fashion industries are an important part of the industrial cluster. It has now been equipped with three professional service institutions, including the Qingyuan Branch of the National Textile Fabrics Museum, China Textile Industry Federation Testing Center, and Guangqing Zhongda Testing Research Institute.
From Haizhu to Qingyuan, the decentralization of Zhongda’s textile and apparel-related industries will inevitably involve issues such as reallocation of resources and coordination of interests among multiple parties. This is still a relatively long process.
With the industry on the road to transformation and upgrading, how should urban villages such as Kangle and Lujiang continue to develop?
Urban renewal.
At the beginning of 2021, Hopson Development and Zhujiang Investment successively won the old renovation projects of Fenghe (Kangle Village, Lujiang Village) and Wufeng Economic United Cooperative (Shaxi, Wucun, Taining). The total investment amount was respectively Approximately 34.667 billion yuan and 22.89 billion yuan.
At present, the Fenghe Village (Kangle, Lujiang) renovation project is still progressing in an orderly manner, and preliminary research work such as the preparation of area planning plans is being carried out.
However, compared with the renewal and renovation node requirements of Fenghe Village (Kangle, Lujiang) and Wufeng Village at that time, many node tasks have lagged behind.
But the old revision is a long process, and we can only wait patiently.
According to the plan, Wufeng Economic Union (Shaxi, Wucun, Taining) will create a high-end platform with strong radiation for technological innovation and scientific research achievement transformation, transform into the Guangzhou version of “Zhongguancun”, and become Haizhu’s new economic growth pole.
And Fenghe (Kangle Village, Lujiang Village) will undertake the transformation of core knowledge achievements of the Technological Innovation Corridor in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and will build a centralized “scientific research headquarters, It is a high-quality innovative technology enterprise gathering area that integrates technology incubation and business supporting functions. It is organically integrated with the surrounding beautiful ecology and upgraded into a garden-style ecological habitat suitable for business and livability.
Furthermore, Zhujiang Investment and Hopson Development have a very close relationship. Once Wufeng, Kangle and Lujiang are developed contiguously, they will be able to take advantage of the planning and construction opportunities of the Zhongda International Innovation Valley and the industrial transformation of the cloth market. Together we can inject new vitality into the area and the old city of Haizhu.
