In recent years, the textile industry has become increasingly difficult to work in. Textile people often say that nowadays, as long as you dare to work hard, you can achieve something. era. And 2018 is another year full of ups and downs. Whether it is strict environmental protection inspections, soaring raw material prices or unwilling to lag behind in factory rents, textile bosses are miserable. Textile people originally thought that those who had survived the off-season in July and August would be able to “recover” in the traditional “Golden Nine” peak season, but they did not expect that this year’s “Golden Nine” would be as slow as a shy girl. Ken shows up…
Has the “Golden Nine” peak season finally arrived?
As to whether the peak season has come or not, different textile bosses also hold different views.
The peak season has not yet appeared: According to the survey, most textile bosses said that this year’s peak season seems to have come a bit late. From the orders received, it can be seen that the power of “Golden Nine” has not been fully demonstrated. The boss of Wangduo Textile in Wujiang City told the author that although it has entered the traditional peak season, their orders have not increased as much as in the usual peak season. On the contrary, the order reception situation has been in a very calm state. In addition, their company Most of them are foreign trade, and the current foreign trade market is not objective, which makes the order situation even more deserted.
Peak season is here: Several Although many cloth bosses say that the peak season is not busy, there are still some cloth bosses who say that the current order situation is optimistic. Boss Mei of Suzhou Xinfei Textile Technology said that although the external environment this year is very unfavorable for small and medium-sized enterprises, Xinfei Textile still received more orders than last year with its good product quality and excellent service attitude. As we enter the traditional peak season, they have also received many orders from new and old customers. It can be said that the peak season has arrived.
Overall, the surge in upstream raw materials during this period has put considerable pressure on downstream companies. The survey shows that the majority of cloth owners think that the market is not good and the peak season has not really arrived yet. Most, so it can be said that this year’s “Golden Nine” peak season is indeed not as early as in previous years, the momentum is not as strong yet, and the overall order receiving situation of the market needs to be improved.
So, how do textile bosses react to the belated traditional peak season?
“Buddhist” boss VS “radical” boss
Through surveys and interviews, we have found that there has been no improvement. During the “peak season”, bosses can be said to be divided into two major factions – the “Buddhist” faction and the “angry youth” faction.
“Buddhist” school: Lu The boss runs a small weaving factory equipped with 80 looms. She said that although one-third of September has passed, there is no sign of an increase in orders in the factory. Although this peak season is much quieter than in previous years, this year A lot is happening in the textile industry, so she was not surprised that orders were not as high as usual. Regarding how to deal with the traditional peak season that starts with a deserted start, she said that this is due to the general textile environment. As a small downstream weaving factory owner, it cannot be changed. There is no rush for orders. Her current priority is Just make sure you make the list at hand.
“Radical” faction: Mr. Hu is a textile trading boss, Facing this tepid “Golden Nine” peak season, he racks his brains every day to think of various countermeasures. In recent days, he has called out many old textile friends he had not seen for a long time for a meal, in order not to miss any chance of cooperation. In addition to contacting old friends, Boss Hu now personally visits the market every day, hoping to receive more orders. Faced with the current market situation, he complained to the author: “Dyeing fees have increased, raw materials have increased, and rents have also increased. The number of orders and the price of my products cannot increase! How can I continue my business?”
No matter whether the current order-taking situation is good or bad, and whether you are a “Buddhist” textile boss or not, everyone’s wish is actually the same, that is, we hope that the traditional peak season can be a real peak season, and that we can accept orders The number of orders can also increase. Those “Buddhist” bosses who seem to be indifferent on the surface actually don’t hope to receive more orders and do better business when this “Golden Nine” arrives? Although the current peak season market is still relatively calm, it is expected that the market conditions will improve soon, and the peak season will arrive sooner or later. Textile bosses, please wait patiently.
