Economic Rebound, Wenzhou Shoe Enterprises Vigorously Enter The Eastern European Market

The global financial crisis began in the United States and spread rapidly all over the world.

But from the current actual situation, China's export situation is better than expected.

   　　 “我感覺到國外的經濟在復蘇”

Zhang Dongqing, chairman of Wenzhou Hongquan shoes industry Co., Ltd., who had just arrived in Europe in March this year, has to visit two or three times a year.

"Europe's economic recovery is not as good as China's. But it is much better than last year".

At present, his factory is producing winter leather shoes.

According to the order, the production begins now. After pportation and customs clearance, it reaches the Eastern European market, just in winter.

Zhang Dongqing shoe factory's export orders increase is just a microcosm.

Data show that the throughput of Qingdao port and Ningbo port increased in 2009 compared with that in 2008. The export of Wenzhou leather shoes from Ningbo port reaches hundreds of millions of pairs a year.

"Before September 2009, due to the financial crisis, the price of the external market dropped, and the price of domestic polypropylene was higher than that of imports.

However, since the beginning of this year, domestic polypropylene prices in the United States and other countries have picked up, and the price gap between the external market price and the domestic market price has been greatly reduced, reflecting the rapid recovery of the developed economies in the United States and other developed countries.

Li Hanchu, manager of synthetic resin Department of Sinopec chemical sales, Southern China branch.

Li Hanchu said that in dealing with foreign counterparts and customers, we have a closer judgement that the recovery of China's petrochemical market should be three months to half a year more than that of foreign countries.

"Foreign economic situation was not good in 2009, and exports were greatly affected, but this year foreign trade picked up quickly."

Xu Yaocheng, deputy general manager of Zhejiang Jin Shi knitting group, said that on the one hand, they asked the existing foreign trade department to further close to the market. On the other hand, they decided to build a new foreign trade department to directly develop foreign customers instead of intermediary companies.

Recently, the latest world economic outlook report released by the International Monetary Fund shows that the recovery of the world economy is better than expected, and in 2010 and 2011, it is expected to grow by 4.2% and 4.3% respectively after a decrease of 0.6% in 2009.

However, the International Monetary Fund and the world bank's joint spring meeting in 2010, which just closed in April 25th, stressed that although the world economic recovery is better than expected, it faces new challenges.

"The world is inseparable from China".

Once the trade pattern is formed, it becomes a habit. It is not easy to change it.

"At present, the footwear industry in Eastern Europe is almost monopolized by Wenzhou enterprises, and basically sells shoes made in Wenzhou. I estimate that there should be hundreds of millions of pairs in one year.

They are barefoot when they leave China. "

The manager of an import and export trading company in Wenzhou jokes.

Known as the "barometer of China's economy", the Canton Fair, which was held in the autumn of 2008 and the spring of 2009 after the outbreak of the international financial crisis, fell sharply in the two sessions.

At the 107th Canton Fair that just concluded, overseas buyers and export pactions maintained a momentum of recovery growth.

Taking textiles as an example, orders for export products have increased and prices have increased.

"This mainly takes into account the expectation of RMB appreciation, and even if it is improved, foreign businessmen can accept it."

Cai Lin He, Shaoxing Office of Sinopec Chemical Sales East China branch, said that China's textiles were not easily replaced, including India and Vietnam with strong momentum.

The head of China Chemical Fiber Association also said that 10 years ago, most of China's exports were low-grade goods and sold on stalls.

Now it is different. Many advanced shopping malls and high-end counters are made in China, either in China or in China.
