It is understood that during the Spring Festival, 14 department stores affiliated to three enterprises, Beiren Group, Ginza Donggou and Jianhua, achieved a total sales of 258.904 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 37%, the largest increase among all business types. Among them, the overall sales of Jianhua Department Store increased by about 35%, and the clothing products increased by 25% compared with the same period last year.

As the leading enterprise in Shijiazhuang's department store industry, Xiantianxia Shopping Mall, Beiguo Shopping Mall, People's Shopping Mall, etc. under Beiren Group were open during the Spring Festival. According to the sales staff of camel children's clothing in Xiantianxia Square, during the Spring Festival, the brand's clothing sales were very popular, many styles had broken codes and numbers, and the sales staff were very busy, and there was no time to replenish the goods. Similarly, the reporter saw at the Vero Moda counter in Beiguo Mall that many winter clothes have been sold at half price, and many styles are only oversized.

Also popular are underwear and socks, especially the red series, which sold out before the festival. It is understood that local people pay attention to wearing red and gold in their life year. Before the Spring Festival every year, red underwear products and socks are selling very well.

Contrary to the booming sales market, with the end of the Spring Festival holiday, many local textile enterprise bosses began to have a headache for recruitment. "After the Spring Festival, the return rate of our workers was less than 50%. Seeing that the order could not be completed, we were really anxious!" Mr. Zhang, the boss of a printing and dyeing factory, said that the enterprise wanted to recruit some workers after the seventh day of the first month, and started work quickly, but found that there was no one to recruit. He said that even if he offered 2500 yuan for small workers and 3500 yuan for large workers, he could not recruit suitable workers. According to reports, this salary standard is about 1000 yuan higher than last year. Mr. Zhang said that at the end of each year, there are always some skilled workers who resign. "On the one hand, they want to go home to celebrate the New Year, and on the other hand, they also want to seek better development in the new year. If they want to recruit full staff, it is estimated that the end of February will come."

In this regard, the relevant person in charge of the local labor market said that the wage level of labor-intensive enterprises today is not very different, but the living conditions such as food and housing are very different, so many enterprises try their best to improve the welfare and food and housing conditions of workers. This year, many enterprises in Shijiazhuang are generally faced with the problem of recruitment. Many enterprises enter the labor service center for recruitment all the year round, but they still worry about recruitment every day. At present, Shijiazhuang is most in short supply of front-line ordinary workers in clothing, shoemaking, printing and dyeing, machinery manufacturing and other industries.
