The Bird Flu In The Down Industry Has Gradually Gone Away.

China is the largest in the world. Down Producers and consumers. After the outbreak of bird flu, the live poultry market in many provinces in China has been closed down step by step, and poultry products sales have plummeted, which has a direct impact on the supply of raw wool in the down industry, and has a significant impact on the down industry.

Xintang street, Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, is a famous feather and down distributing center in China. Nearly 70% of the raw wool is processed here. After the outbreak of bird flu, local demand for the raw wool in Shanghai, Anhui and other severe bird flu areas was stopped.

Hangzhou Hualong, with thousands of employees and annual output value of 1 billion yuan Down products Ltd. is a large and medium-sized export oriented feather and down export enterprise in Xiaoshan. More than 70% of the company's raw wool is purchased domestically. Han Danhong, director of the workshop, said that after the outbreak of avian flu, the volume of shipments was less than a few dozen tons a month.

Jiangxi Cheng Long down products Co., Ltd. began to stop production at the end of April, and over 100 workers stopped working.

The shortage of raw wool has doubled the price and the price of down products has gone up. "In April and May, the down from the previous 300 thousand yuan / ton rose to 600 thousand yuan / ton, and the cashmere volume 80% increased from 230 thousand yuan / ton to about 500000 yuan / ton" in the year of April and May. Chen Xuehui, chairman of Jiangxi Xinhui down products Co., Ltd.

Bird flu's trauma to China's down industry is like Domino's dominoes. The upstream price is "soaring", which has obvious effect on the down industry. Downstream down products enterprises are "sad days".

Chen Xuehui said: "because many orders were signed before the price rise in February, it is now a deficit of one ton to buy a ton. The earliest delivery order this year is the 30 thousand down garment at the end of July. At present, we are dealing with inventory and a small number of new purchases. The next order will have to wait. If we buy at the current price, one piece will be purchased. clothes To lose tens of dollars, about 200000 orders must be lost millions of dollars.

In this round of price increases, insiders and agencies including the China feather and down association said they could not exclude the possibility of artificially hoarding goods.

The industry believes that this round of avian flu's "harm" to the down industry will result in a decline in the export volume of eiderdown. "Down the world to see Xiaoshan", Hangzhou Xiaoshan is China's feather and its down feather home textile industry "vane", down and its exports accounted for 56% of the country, the world market share of 1/4. China's down Industry Association believes that the export of Chinese down products will decline considerably in the near future.

From the end of May to the beginning of June, the emergency response of avian flu was gradually lifted in all parts of China. The poultry market was gradually restored, and the down price fell. "As we expect, once the weather is hot, it will challenge the survival of the influenza virus, and the" alarm "can be lifted. At present, the overall price of the industry has dropped a lot compared with that in April and May. For example, the down of 90% down has fallen to 520 thousand / ton, but it is still higher than before. Yang Cheng said, "it is still time for the down industry to restore" vitality "at a time. Because a large number of duck seedlings are buried during the outbreak of avian influenza, there is a cycle for ducks to grow, and there will be a long period of market failure.

In order to get rid of the "haze" of avian flu Down industry The adjustment of production plan has become an inevitable choice. China's large scale modern feather and down products manufacturing enterprise duck duck group said it will no longer produce products such as duffed quilts and so on. clothing Fashion will also be developed to reduce the amount of cashmere.
