“Earns are busy planting, harvesting and planting again.” The textile industry has always been divided into off-season and peak season. Generally speaking, as soon as June arrives, the market will also enter the off-season.
June is the first month of the off-season. While we are wrapping up orders for the peak season, we are also continuing to receive orders.
Small orders keep coming, big orders appear occasionally
At the beginning of June, most textile companies will focus on two things. One is to complete the unfinished orders in the early stage, and the other is to receive new orders to maintain the startup of the subsequent off-season.
“Although the order situation in June has decreased compared with May, small orders have not been interrupted, and the factory can still maintain normal startup.” A simulated silk manufacturer said.
Entering June, due to the decrease in orders, the weaving market once again entered the inventory accumulation stage. Many weaving manufacturers have high inventories, most of which are more than 2 months old. At this time, it has become normal for the market to “grab” orders.
“Not long ago, a foreign trade order of 5 million meters appeared in the market, and many jet manufacturers are vying for orders even though their profits are very low.” A person in the textile circle said.
The 5 million meter order assumes that the production of 100 looms will take six months of continuous production to complete, which means that if we get this order, we can safely get through the troubles of production reduction and production suspension caused by the off-season.
Start-up remains stable, textile companies cautiously stock up
In the off-season, textile company owners must be even more cautious when starting production. No orders are a worry, and forced production without orders will also cause unnecessary losses.
In terms of startup rate, according to the startup rate of sample companies monitored by Silkdu.com, the current startup rate of local manufacturers remains at 73%, which is lower than the previous period. This shows that the current market environment is actually going downhill, and weaving manufacturers are also declining. Beat the off-season by turning on fewer machines.
In terms of inventory, according to the current data monitored by Silkdu.com, the inventory this week is 35.3 days, which is an increase from last week. Although there is no shortage of small orders in the market, many textile companies are currently tight on orders, and through production inventory However, compared with previous years, the inventory days of local enterprises are still considerable.
In terms of raw materials, weaving bosses are also very cautious. Judging from the trend of polyester production and sales this week, it has always remained at a lower-medium level. Last weekend’s promotion did not drive the shipment of polyester goods, and the state of replenishment on demand is basically maintained. From the side, it can also It can be seen that the owners of textile companies are preserving their financial strength and not being trapped by inventory.
Whether it is conventional fabric varieties or niche products, competition and fighting will only get worse. No one can guarantee that they will be the final winner. The textile industry has now reached a crossroads of hesitation and anxiety, but difficulties and opportunities coexist. Perhaps only by actively breaking through and accelerating transformation can we adapt to the market rules of “survival of the fittest”.
