From The Data Of Import And Export Under The Trade Friction Environment, How Should Cotton Textile Enterprises Deal With Trade Disputes?

On the morning of June 10th, the General Administration of Customs announced the relevant situation of China's foreign trade import and export in the first 5 months of this year.

Data show that in the first 5 months of this year, China's total value of imports and exports of goods trade reached 12 trillion and 100 billion yuan, up 4.1% over the same period last year.

Among them, exports were 6 trillion and 500 billion yuan, an increase of 6.1%; imports of 5 trillion and 600 billion yuan, an increase of 1.8%; trade surplus of 893 billion 360 million yuan, an expansion of 45%.

Li Kuiwen, director general of the General Statistics Department of the Customs General Administration: in the first 5 months of this year, China's foreign trade continued to grow steadily.

In the face of world economic growth and the slowing down of international trade, the trend of China's economic stabilization and long-term improvement has not changed. The fundamentals of China's resilience, potential and strength have not changed. In particular, the effectiveness of a series of policy measures, such as stabilizing foreign trade and stabilizing foreign investment, has gradually emerged, and the business environment has been continuously optimized. This has laid a solid foundation for China's foreign trade development.

The level of foreign trade facilitation continues to improve.

In Shanghai, a big data platform for cross-border trade management summarizes more than 700 million data from production, trade, logistics, taxation, industry and commerce, foreign exchange and other parties, and seamlessly connects with "single window", shipping companies and port departments.

Zhang Lei, director of Shanghai customs big data cloud Center: this big data platform collects various information such as financial information, goods information, enterprise information and so on. It is through these information that we can make the law-abiding enterprises more convenient, and the goods can be realized in seconds.

Through this new mode of intelligent clearance, enterprises can not only declare in advance, but also arrange the suitcase plan ahead of schedule, so as to achieve "preferential booking" and "berthing".

Foreign trade is becoming more and more convenient, and the steady growth of imports and exports has been consolidated.

In May, China's foreign trade import and export value was 2 trillion and 590 billion yuan, an increase of 2.9% over the same period last year.

Among them, exports were 1 trillion and 430 billion yuan, an increase of 7.7% over the previous year, 2% faster than the first 4 months, and 1 trillion and 160 billion yuan, down 2.5% from the same period last year.

Then, what is the real situation of China's cotton textile industry in the environment of trade friction?

Recently, the China Cotton Textile Industry Association went to Guangdong to investigate the changes in the market after the Sino US trade friction upgrading, the survival status of enterprises and the voice of enterprises, etc., and visited various links such as yarn traders, international large textile enterprises, downstream weaving enterprises and other industrial chains, presenting the following characteristics.

01, spinning enterprises stock pressure increased, production and marketing slowed down

As the main downstream market of China's cotton textile industry, Guangdong's operation of multiple clusters can be regarded as a barometer of the industrial chain operation. From the understanding of the visit, the market wait-and-see sentiment has been continuously pmitted from the terminal to the upstream since the trade friction escalated. As the spinning link of the two heads, the market pressure is the biggest. The main performance is the following three points: first, the polarization between the large and medium sized enterprises and the small and medium sized enterprises is almost identical.

Because of the relatively small number of small and medium-sized enterprises, the number of banks applying for loans is relatively small, and the proportion of their own funds is relatively small. At the present stage, the risk of capital chain is even larger than that of small and micro enterprises. Two, the yarn stocking of downstream factories is not active, so as to reduce the risk of inventory backlog, the production and marketing of cotton mills are not smooth, and the inventory continues to depreciate. The three is that although China's exports of American textiles account for only about 16%~20% of China's total exports, because the textile industry is a stock industry, the levy of tariffs has led to a decline in confidence in a short period of time, resulting in oversupply of demand, leading to several major markets outside the United States slowing down or taking the opportunity to reduce prices. This Domino type superposition conduction effect amplifies the direct impact of trade friction on China's cotton textile industry.

02, enterprises do not give up, actively respond to, stabilize employees, waiting for change.

In terms of trade disputes, Chinese cotton textile enterprises have not lost their confidence. Enterprises of various types should actively respond to their own characteristics. The pnational enterprises can reduce the impact of trade friction through matching with other overseas production base orders. After the domestic enterprises reduce their orders, they can only reduce their wages by increasing the scheduling and letting workers take turns off work. This will help stabilize staff, reduce wastage, wait for a turn for the better, and be ready for full load production at any time.

03, many enterprises call on the state to introduce relevant measures in time to help enterprises tide over difficulties.

In the survey, enterprises call for the cotton textile industry to be one of the traditional industries and livelihood industries of the country, and also an important basic industry in China.

China's textile industry's complete industrial chain and the advantages of leading the world trend are beyond the reach of other countries, helping our country solve the two major livelihood problems of people's dressing and employment.

Although the technology level is not as sophisticated and focused as many emerging industries and conceptual industries, and may even be at the bottom of China's industrial Pyramid system, but for Pyramid, the underlying foundation determines the height of the top level. If the basic industry goes out of a large scale, it will surely cause the foundation of the industrial system and social stability, and it has great irreversibility.

Therefore, in the special circumstances of Sino US trade disputes, the government should pay more attention to the high-tech industry and pay more attention to the cotton textile industry, and suggest that the relevant departments should timely introduce relevant measures to stabilize the prices of raw materials, reduce the burden on enterprises, boost market confidence and help enterprises tide over difficulties.
