Multiple Factors Stress Dongguan Export Garment Enterprises Face Shuffle

The shock of the financial crisis has only been two years ago.

Labor is still a hot topic.

Pan Rihui, Secretary General of Dongguan textile and garment industry association, revealed at the meeting that according to the preliminary investigation, the clothing industry in our city has increased 20% to 30% of the labor cost this year than the previous year.

"At present, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the RMB is about 6.4. If the RMB continues to appreciate and the exchange rate falls to around 6, there will be a number of export garment enterprises that will be eliminated."

Yang Fengqiao, Secretary of the board of directors of Tianxiang Garments Co., Ltd. believes that "what is bothering us now is the problem of human resources.

Compared with the broad and deep, it will be more difficult for Dongguan to recruit senior executives.

Therefore, both the enterprise itself and the government level need to continue to pay attention to and work together to solve these problems for garment enterprises.

Qin Yingfu, Deputy Secretary General of the Humen apparel and apparel industry association, revealed that the "post-90s" workers' demands for garment factories' labor environment and living environment, as well as salary and remuneration requirements of their factories are getting higher and higher, which have brought great challenges to our garment enterprises.

Clothing enterprises can consider integrating resources.

Li Xiangdong, general manager of textile department of Dingxin Trade Co., Ltd., believes that enterprises can consider integrating resources, make Dongguan into a trade center, do resource integration, use Pakistan's cotton to carry out processing in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, and innovate after reducing the cost of the entire supply chain, such as adding metal wire, or doing some environmentally friendly low-carbon products such as bamboo charcoal fiber, and so on, gradually moving towards the smiling ends of the apparel industry chain.

In view of this, Lai Lijun, Deputy Secretary General of the city wool textile industry association, agreed that it is necessary to start from the enterprise itself to resolve the dilemma, indicating that the governments at all levels in our city have given greater support in solving human resources and encouraging enterprises to purchase CNC looms.

Yuan Kai, general manager of Zhongkai Garments Co., Ltd., Xie Hui, general manager of Dongguan Hui Garments Co., Ltd., and Chen Chunnuan, Deputy Secretary General of the wool textile industry association, also provide support for the development of textile and garment industry in our city.
