Asia Europe Buyers And Footwear Enterprises Trade Talks

A few days ago, in the supply and demand meeting of the "Shoe Expo Jinjiang business", 20 buyers from Europe and Asia and 125 Asian footwear suppliers met face to face with each other. Purchasers purchase products include casual shoes, sports shoes, functional shoes and so on.

Many participants said that due to the pressure of labor costs, rising cost of raw materials and exchange rate fluctuations, enterprises are trying to guard against risks by increasing prices, shortening orders and shortening delivery dates.

Many factors have contributed to the rising cost of products, but from the interview, we can see that raising the price of products has become the general consensus of production enterprises, and this behavior is gradually accepted by buyers. "At present, most of the product profits are around 10%. We will appropriately raise the prices according to the acceptability of buyers from different regions. Foreign businessmen also understand that business is not good now." Jinjiang Tai Jia import and export trading company Chen Yongquan said.

Can the new price increase be accepted by foreign purchasers? The manufacturer said he did not calculate, and the exporter said nothing, only the foreign businessmen said it. Hung Hai Gang, a buyer from South Korea, put his first stop in China in Jinjiang. He said he had heard about the footwear industry in Jinjiang. This time he came to find some functional sports shoes products: "it can be OEM, and can also promote the independent brand of manufacturing enterprises in the Korean market, and the most important thing is the quality of high-end products."

Perhaps, in the view of the Korean importer, things are the most important, and the price is negotiable. In fact, many overseas buyers have begun to deal with the new trend of the upward trend of prices. It is a major feature of this year's foreign trade to take the initiative to look for first-hand suppliers and reduce intermediate links. "I have been purchasing in China for many years. I found in Jinjiang that many samples of functional footwear brought by many Quanzhou enterprises are not seen in Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places. Next, we will do in-depth communication." JacquesBagdetti is an old trader with many years of experience in Chinese market procurement.

"From the perspective of communication, Asian buyers generally want to" walk on two legs ". They both bring orders for OEM production. They also show some willingness to cooperate with some well-known high-end brands. After more than 3 hours of negotiations, Song Xiuxia, deputy general representative of Fujian Representative Office of China International Business Center, who is responsible for the docking meeting, said.

Next year's spring and summer textile trends in China will be released.

On the 19 day, China Textile Information Center, China Fashion Color Association and National Textile Product Development Center released the fashion trend of Chinese casual wear and fabrics in spring and summer of 2011 in Shishi clothing City Exhibition Art Center. It is understood that the general theme of the 2011 spring and summer trend is "deep-sea exploration", consisting of four parts: purity, confluence, trace and fantasy.

At the press conference, Wang Wei, a research expert on textile fashion trends, also reminded Shishi textile and garment enterprises to pay more attention to the application of bamboo fiber in various yarn development, fabric printing and dyeing processes, as well as children's wear, T-Shirts, men's and women's wear, sportswear and casual pants.
