“The customer’s urgent 90,000-meter high-silicon treasure order recently added machine production. I heard that it is exported to the United States. The profit of this kind of order is very high…” A Shengze said a regional textile boss.
The overall situation of the textile market this year has been that there are orders In the embarrassing state of no profit, there are still considerable profits in foreign trade orders. The above-mentioned textile boss exported 90,000 meters of Kosibao finished product orders to the United States and placed them in the domestic demand market. Usually the gray fabric price is more than 3 yuan/meter, and the finished product price is 6.5 yuan/meter. The export price of rice immediately increased by 0.5 yuan/meter, the price of finished products was 7 yuan/meter, and the profit increased by about 10%.
Faced with high shipping costs, textile bosses still have However, the textile boss who received the order snickered.
Freight costs are rising rapidly and are expected to exceed 20,000 in September!
High freight has been a troublesome thing for foreign trade people this year. They are already facing soaring raw materials and thin profits, which makes foreign trade even more difficult. People’s originally poor life has become even worse.
“At the beginning of this year, the price of high cabinets exported to the United States was still US$1,000. Before May, it was US$4,000. In June, it rose to US$9,000, and it rose again in July. A container costs 12,000 US dollars, and by August the price is already 16,000-18,000 US dollars. If this continues, the price may rise to 20,000 US dollars in September, and there is still the problem of difficulty in finding containers.” said the textile boss.
In just 9 or eight months, exports Shipping costs in the United States have increased 15 times. Affected by the epidemic, the shipping costs for exporting abroad have been rising since last year. Not only ocean freight, but also the aviation logistics market has become popular since last year, and there has even been a phenomenon of “it is hard to find a cabin” .
But export orders to the United States like the above-mentioned textile bosses The American customers pay for it themselves, so the impact on them is not very big, and they make more money than the domestic demand market. Therefore, the textile boss hopes to get more orders like this, but there are also orders that require shipping costs. At this time, textile bosses need to increase costs, otherwise they will still be the ones losing money.
The domestic demand market is still stable, but the foreign trade market still needs to wait!
According to the current situation, the foreign epidemic has not been completely controlled. Most of the orders received by textile bosses are domestic orders, which is why this year There is no profit in market orders, and low-price competition has become a trend. Many gray fabrics have been repeatedly lowered by customers, and in the end they are even willing to lose money for the sake of orders. Of course, this situation only exists in the domestic demand market.
Significant profits in the foreign trade market have always been the norm in the textile market , however, since the epidemic, foreign orders have been greatly reduced compared to previous years. Although the phenomenon of being unable to enter and exit from abroad no longer exists, the epidemic in foreign markets is still relatively serious at present, and mutant viruses are raging, making it difficult to think that this year will The textile boss who had an order was disappointed again.
The quality of the textile market cannot only depend on the domestic demand market. Obviously, the foreign trade market is more important. After all, the domestic demand market is so big, and the scope of the foreign trade market is Very, very big, as China, the largest exporter of textiles, if it wants the market to be good, it depends on whether the foreign market is good.
In general, August is coming to an end and the peak season is approaching. If nothing else goes wrong, the day when orders will be placed is not far away. The demand for fabrics for winter clothing is much greater than that for summer clothing. Although the price of raw materials has begun to fall due to the poor market situation, as long as the market rebounds, the price of raw materials will After falling and rising again, the prices of everything will naturally increase when the market improves. Textile bosses should be mentally prepared in the days after September!
