In the first quarter of this year, accompanied by domestic and foreign Spin clothing With the gradual recovery of the market, the textile industry in Hebei also showed signs of recovery. According to statistics, in the first quarter of this year, the main business income of Hebei textile industry increased by 27% compared with the same period last year, and the total profit increased by 38% year-on-year.

Exports are a barometer of the textile industry. Signs of recovery are particularly prominent in textile and clothing exports. According to customs statistics, Hebei textile and clothing exports total 795 million US dollars in 1~2 months, an increase of 42.17% over the same period last year, a record high in recent years.

The reasons for this are: first, exports were relatively low during the same period last year, and the base number was reduced. Two, the number of orders increased this year and the market expanded. The demand in Europe and the United States was partially released, and the emerging markets such as South Africa, Australia and Brazil were further expanded, and Hebei fur was also released. Leatherwear In the traditional export market of clothing, Russia's economic growth has spawned demand, and some of the orders originally moved to Southeast Asia have also returned to China due to local political and economic instability. The number of orders for textile and garment enterprises in Hebei increased this year compared with the same period last year. Three is the product price factor. Due to the double squeeze of rising production costs and RMB appreciation, the export enterprises are forced to be more picky about the choice of orders, not only to be satisfied with the dry orders, but also to take good orders with high gold content.

In Rongcheng County, Hebei, a famous Chinese menswear City, most production shops are busy. Zhang Youfang, chairman of the Hebei Lai you fashion group, which is the main producer of export garments, said that the market is in good condition and that the number of enterprises is sufficient, so that the number of workers can not meet production needs.

Another backbone enterprise, Baoding Jinhai clothing company, produces Suit Mainly, with hanging type production line and other advanced equipment. In the face of an order, general manager Xue Xinjian was also worried. He said that the average monthly salary of his company's workers has reached 3500 yuan, which is still understaffed. Recently, the company has purchased automatic cutting beds, and has adopted template technology in many complicated processes such as collar, pocket, flap and bag opening, which has reduced the difficulty of operation, and made the new skilled workers who are not skilled in technology also make qualified products and improve the production efficiency. Chen Qingquan, chairman of Hebei Kimcheon sea import and export company, engaged in foreign trade clothing business for many years. Clothing export It is expected to be optimistic, but at the same time, it also indicates that Hebei textile and garment enterprises still have a certain gap with the developed coastal provinces and cities in terms of information channel construction, industrial resource integration and quick reaction capability, so they need to redouble their efforts to improve as soon as possible. While the textile industry in Hebei has been improving as a whole, the performance of the chemical fiber industry is not satisfactory. Made of chemical pulp. fibre The production and sales rate of Hebei chemical fiber enterprises, which is mainly made of prime fiber, dropped by more than 5% compared with the same period last year.
