Ningbo Garment Industry "Teng Cage For Bird" Industry Pformation And Upgrading To Find A Breakthrough

< p > some experts believe that the pfer of manufacturing industry to Southeast Asia in the same period as the manufacturing center from Japan and Korea to the Southeast Asia is in line with the law of economic development. This may have a certain impact on Ningbo's foreign trade, but more importantly, Ningbo's "dragon changing bird" after the relocation of manufacturing industry, and how to accelerate industrial upgrading better.

< p > "this year is the most difficult year for me in the 30 years since I was engaged in garment foreign trade business."

Wang Dingying, general manager of Taiping bird import and export company, said.

< p > Ningbo Taiping bird import and export company, which is mainly exported to Ningbo, is a large scale foreign trade enterprise, but its business is not good this year.

Quotations are no longer suitable for factories in Southeast Asia, but many foreign trade orders have been pferred to Southeast Asia.

Wang Dingying said that WAL-MART's orders had 1 million to 1 million 500 thousand shirts and T-shirts, but the price of each item was only fifteen yuan and six yuan. The factories in the Yangtze River Delta simply could not afford such a price, and even the cost was not enough. Therefore, a large number of foreign trade orders were pferred to Southeast Asia, especially in Vietnam, Kampuchea and Bangladesh in South Asia.

< p > "Southeast Asian manufacturing" is constantly nibbling orders for Ningbo's foreign trade.

Ningbo customs official said this year, although the consumption of traditional European and American markets is getting warmer and warmer, a large number of orders have not correspondingly returned to China, but pferred to Southeast Asian countries.

< p > Vietnam has become the second largest source of imports after China in the EU footwear market.

China's garment manufacturing and some garment supporting industries are also increasingly shifting to ASEAN.

In addition, Vietnam's footwear products will officially enjoy preferential tariff preferences (GSP) for EU exports from January 1st next year, making Chinese exports more competitive.

In addition to the China ASEAN Free Trade Area, ASEAN has established a free trade area with Japan, South Korea, India, Australia and New Zealand and other countries. P

Singapore and Malaysia have also established a free trade zone with the European Union. Vietnam is negotiating with the EU in the FTA. Thailand and the EU have also initiated negotiations on the FTA.

At the same time, the "p Pacific (601099, stock bar) strategic economic partnership" (TPP) will exacerbate trade diversion and reach 7 in ASEAN member countries.

The close trade between the developed economies and ASEAN will weaken the trade creation effect of China ASEAN Free Trade Area.

The relatively low labor costs and the constantly improving investment environment in Southeast Asia not only attract foreign trade orders from European and American merchants, but also attract a large number of foreign trade enterprises in Ningbo to invest in P.

At present, YOUNGOR, Shanshan, Shenzhou, Changlong Guotai, lion Dun, Dafa chemical fiber, Bailong and other garment enterprises have already established their own production bases in Southeast Asian countries. The main investment countries are Vietnam, Kampuchea and Bangladesh near Southeast Asia.

In addition, Yongfa group, Tai Yuan bicycle industry, Nanyuan group, Zhongji Ningbo group and Silver billion group have also invested in Southeast Asian countries.

< /p >

< p > according to the statistics released by the Municipal Bureau of foreign trade and economic cooperation, the investment of our city's enterprises in Southeast Asia is very active, keeping at a higher level. From the perspective of investment countries, besides Brunei, our city has invested in the other 9 Southeast Asian countries in the first 11 months of this year. Our city's enterprises have invested 19 projects in Southeast Asian countries, and approved the Chinese investment to reach US $185 million.

So far, our city has invested 420 projects in Southeast Asia, approving the Chinese investment amount of US $736 million, and the actual Chinese investment is US $350 million.

< /p >

< p > "investment projects in Southeast Asia are mainly clothing, mining and trade projects. There are not many other industrial projects such as household appliances, moulds and so on."

Xu Jianhua, deputy director of the Ningbo foreign economic and Trade Bureau, said, "for the labor intensive industries such as clothing, because of the increasingly prominent labor cost advantage in Southeast Asia, industrial pfer is imminent."

< /p >

< p > "the monthly salary of Kampuchea garment workers is about 70 dollars, Vietnam is about 150 dollars, Bangladesh is about 100 dollars, which is obviously lower than the minimum monthly salary level of 2500 yuan in Ningbo."

Shen Gongcan, general manager of Ningbo en Kai textile import and Export Corporation, said: "this is the most valued advantage of clothing enterprises investing in Southeast Asia. Besides, European and American countries have the most preferential tariff treatment for Kampuchea and no barriers to trade barriers."

< /p >

< p > Ye Wanyin, associate professor of Zhejiang Textile and Fashion College, believes that Ningbo clothing enterprises can pfer production lines to Southeast Asia, which can maintain the original cost advantage to maintain export to the European and American markets, and expand the local market. At the same time, it also makes room for the pformation and upgrading of Ningbo's garment industry, which is of great strategic significance.

< /p >

< p > < strong > raw material and technology are still the advantages of Ningbo < /strong > < /p >

< p > however, Ningbo's investment in Southeast Asia is only one of the manufacturing bases, instead of moving all production factories to Southeast Asian countries.

Yongfa group set up a production base in Vietnam 3 years ago, but Hu Xiaoliang, general manager of Yongfa group, said that the Vietnamese factories only assembled the parts that were produced by the Qinzhou factory in Guangxi, and sold them to Southeast Asia and India after finished products.

"The technology of workers in Southeast Asian countries is only about our level in the 90s of last century, and the supporting industries such as moulds and finishing processes are not developed, so it is difficult to pfer the industry to the past.

To achieve the current level of domestic technology, it will take at least 5 years.

Hu Xiaoliang said.

< /p >

Zhang Xiaofeng, vice president and Secretary General of Ningbo Garment Association, believes that the main impact on China's garment manufacturing industry is Vietnam, India, Kampuchea, Bangladesh and Burma.

From the current level of development, most of the products pferred to Southeast Asia are clothing, < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/list.aspx ClassID=101112107102" > shoes and hats < /a > bags and other primary products.

After decades of development in Ningbo, the advantages of manufacturing technology and equipment, raw materials and related facilities as well as logistics and pportation are obvious.

< /p >

< p > Zhang Xiaofeng said that the production lines that clothing companies move to there can only produce shirts, jeans and underwear and so on. There are factors of design level and raw material factors in the production line which is less changed all the year round. "For example, the women's clothing that we provide to European and American countries has a lot of changes in design styles. Many jewelry and fabrics can not be produced in Southeast Asia. If Southeast Asian factories are built, the raw materials must be exported from the domestic market. If the other party adds orders, the production lines of Southeast Asian factories must stop and wait for raw materials, so the losses of factories will be great."
