The bumpy 2018 has passed, trade wars, chemical fiber raw materials have skyrocketed, and crude oil has fallen more than 40% in less than three months. These events seem to have happened yesterday.
Looking forward to the next year - the traditional year of the pig, the pig is a mascot that can bring good fortune and good luck, and even has the symbolic meaning of going forward.
However, in 2019, the macro environment was thorny. Since January 27, many conferences have been held in various places, emphasizing the need to adhere to the bottom line thinking and proactively respond to various risk challenges. From stress prevention to financial risks, to the expansion of the scope of security to economic security, ecological security, public safety and other aspects of risk management and control. In the past, it was mainly to prevent the rapid decline of economic growth. The current external environment is complicated and severe, and there are some problems in the internal market.
So, where is the hope of the textile industry in 2019? In what kind of posture should you meet the Year of the Pig to gain more? The main tone is to be: to invigorate the spirit, to strengthen the confidence, to do your own thing step by step, to plant the future and hope in the work!
Do a good job in market research, including studying industry policies
Implementing to the production and operation level of the enterprise involves raw material procurement, inventory management, fund management and risk control. Therefore, it is particularly important to conduct raw material procurement and inventory management through analysis of price trends. "Cash in the downtrend is king, low inventory operation; physical appreciation in the uptrend, cash depreciation."
In terms of policies, we will promote cross-border e-commerce work around the “Belt and Road” initiative, actively participate in exhibitions, study policies, and grasp industry trends.
Grasping the pace of innovation and ensuring leadership in industry change
Some textile products urgently need to improve their competitiveness. For example, due to the increase in labor costs, the competitive advantage of yarn products has weakened. Imported yarns from India, Pakistan and Vietnam have flooded into China. By introducing advanced technology, attracting top talents, and retaining talents, we will increase development and innovation, thereby increasing the added value of products and their competitive advantages. In addition, there will be more room for development of differentiated fibers. A number of fiber independent technologies such as carbon fiber and aramid have broken foreign monopoly. The low-quality and inefficient tides have been dispersed, and the era of quality and efficiency is coming.
Industrial upgrading, and market expansion
Large enterprises must do a good job in industrial upgrading, and expand the industrial chain on the premise of expanding and strengthening their main business. Consider the layout of fiber, grey cloth, printing and dyeing, clothing, energy and other sectors. Make differentiated and distinctive products, gradually improve the intelligence level of equipment, reduce production costs, and enhance the competitiveness of enterprises. To increase market share, consider establishing strategic partnerships with terminal apparel companies.
Intelligent direction is an effective way to effectively solve the high labor cost
Some chemical fiber companies have started intelligent projects, and will be put into production in 2019. It is reported that most enterprises currently report high labor costs, not only high wages but also difficult recruitment, and the shortage of young workers is prominent. Then the intelligence of production will solve this problem. Although the amount of investment in the early stage is large, it is a good strategic investment direction.
Continued investment in environmental protection equipment, talents, etc.
Fighting pollution prevention and control will not relax in 2019, and environmental issues remain the focus.
The increase in environmental protection investment will lead to the withdrawal of SMEs to a certain extent, and the industry concentration will be further enhanced, thus achieving the leading market share and bargaining power. Especially in the printing and dyeing industry, the threshold is low and the market is scattered. As the environmental protection is only strict, its production capacity is accelerating.
Internet + Internet opportunities in the textile industry
"Internet + textile industry" is releasing unprecedented opportunities. Internet+ is the current development trend, and it is also the basic requirement for the industry in the strategic development of the supply side and the strategic development of the “Belt and Road”.
"There are people who have been watching for four weeks. The world has been silent on him." Let us strengthen our confidence, establish a pattern, identify the general trend, actively grasp the strategic opportunities, and make the textile industry bigger and stronger, and promote the high quality of the industry in a down-to-earth manner. development of. Everyone must have a firm confidence, "pull up the sleeves and cheer up!"
