It is late January, and most workers from other places have returned to their hometowns. At this time, some spray-weaving factories are urgently recruiting workers, and even offer a salary of 300 yuan/day!
According to the editor’s understanding, many weaving factories in Shengze area have postponed their holidays. A manufacturer specializing in peach skin velvet in Shengze originally The holiday was scheduled for the 20th, but because the order came in, the holiday had to be postponed to the 25th. The plan could not keep up with the changes, and workers from other places had returned to their hometowns. In the case of a shortage of workers, temporary workers could only be urgently recruited to fill the gap, and a salary of 300 yuan/day was given. But even so, it’s difficult to find workers.
The textile industry has difficulty recruiting workers and expensive labor
Difficulty in recruiting workers and high labor costs have always been a problem that has plagued textile bosses. Especially next year, it will be even more difficult for textile bosses to recruit workers, which cannot be solved by simply raising wages.
It is understood that the return flow of workers is now serious. With the industrial relocation of the textile industry, many workers in central regions, such as Hubei and Anhui, can find jobs in their hometowns, which has intensified the situation. Recruitment is difficult in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.
In addition to the problem of backflow, textile-related jobs, such as car workers and security workers, are not easy, and the working environment is not good. There is loud noise, and the workshop is cold in winter and hot in summer. Many young people None of them are willing to work. Even if they do, it is difficult to persist. Most of them quit after working for a few months. This has also led to labor difficulties in the textile industry.
The most direct link to job recruitment is salary level. After all, the purpose of working is to make more money. As prices have skyrocketed in recent years, workers’ wages have also increased year by year. In 2018, the salary of front-line operators in the Shengze area was more than 6,000 yuan/month, and the salary of lower-skilled workers, such as loaders and unloaders, was around 4,000 yuan/month. In 2019, some distribution bosses have said that wages will rise by RMB 100-200 per month. “The most important thing now is to retain skilled workers. Wages are rising every year, and benefits are getting better and better. I just hope to retain them.” Workers. Nowadays, raw materials are generally rising, rents are also rising, workers’ wages continue to rise, and costs are rising sharply, but the factory still needs to be maintained.” said the manager of a factory that makes imitation memories in Shengze area.
Workers are returning home one after another. Originally, most factories planned to stop on the 20th. Why was the holiday postponed to the 25th? Have you received new orders recently? To this end, the editor went to the market to find out more.
The order receiving situation at the end of the year was good, and the imitation silk factories were “holding back their sales”
According to the editor’s understanding, many weaving manufacturers in the Shengze area were closed in January. We have all received new orders for next year, some of which we rushed to get before the year, so we can only postpone our holiday plans.
There are also some factories that have the operation of “covering the market”, especially those that make artificial silk. This is also because of the “Golden Three” at the beginning of the year. There will be a period when the supply of artificial silk exceeds the demand. Used to make summer clothing, it has won the favor of many first-line brand clothing designers because of its lightness, comfort and high cost performance. Whether it is chiffon, satin or tangled, it all occupies a certain market share. Therefore, many manufacturers are now weaving more and hoarding it until March, when demand exceeds supply and prices rise, and then sell them. By then, the profits will be even greater. This kind of operation has been done by many manufacturers in previous years, and this year is no exception. “In the first half of next year, imitation silk should sell well, and demand will drive sales, but it will not be as popular as Jinsan in 2018, and peripheral production capacity is still unknown.” Manager Qian of Suzhou Zhongnan Silk Co., Ltd. said.
Since the cloth boss is still optimistic about next year’s “Golden Three” market, plus polyester yarn generally rose by 100-200 on the 21st Yuan/ton, buy up or down, then should the weaving factory stockpile more raw materials to prepare for next year’s production?
Tongxiang direction: The polyester yarn price of a major mainstream factory in Tongxiang rose by 100 yuan; the polyester yarn price of another factory in Tongxiang rose by 100 yuan;
Shaoxing direction: the FDY price of a Shaoxing factory increased by 50-150 yuan. ;
Shaoxing direction: FDY of a factory in Shaoxing increased by 50-150;
Xiaoshan direction: Polyester yarn POY, FDY and DTY of a factory rose by 100;
According to the trend of raw materials rising as soon as they are opened after the holiday last year, whoever gets the goods from Qiantun will make a profit. But after all, this is gambling. No one can say that the raw materials will definitely rise at the beginning of the year, but the possibility of falling is also low. A weaving boss in Shengze area said: According to the practice of previous years, “closed on a good note”.��Raw materials are not likely to fall in the new year, and March is a peak season, so raw materials will not fall either. Weaving factories with sufficient funds can prepare some supplies to prepare for the start of work in the coming year!
Editor’s Note
There are still a few days left for textile people to It’s officially a holiday! No matter how this year goes, you should always leave yourself some time to rest and relax. All textile workers can also take a break and welcome the Spring Festival happily! </p
