China Factory Jeans

In an idle factory, Wei Xiaofeng, 24, sits in a bundle.

Jeans

This brings a message to the West that Chinese factories are cheap to produce.

commodity

The era is gone forever.

In recent years, she and thousands of factories have provided inexpensive clothing for British street shops (a pair of jeans less than 10 pounds, a T-shirt 3 pounds) and cultivated a large number of them.

international brand

Today, the supply chain is broken.

Ms. Wei's factory is in crisis and no longer orders from the West.

"We still receive orders from other countries, and other factories are also, but no one answered.

Order

Because losing money.

Foreigners are unwilling to give reasonable prices.


Wei's factory is one of 5000 jeans factories in Xintang town.

The town of Xintang in Guangzhou has become the "city of jeans in the world".

The jeans industry of the town is world-class in technology.

Quality testing

Comparable to Fuzhou, Diesel and other high-end brands that were produced only in Japan and Italy.

The production of jeans in Xintang began 30 years ago, when many companies springing up rapidly, and soon the world began to benefit from Xintang's countless cheap workers.


Along a road, factories sprayed the windows of their products to the windows, including Poland, Russia and South Korea.

A factory owner boasted that his company's competitiveness had left the jeans factories in Eastern Europe no longer in existence.

However, Chinese factories are now hitting the wall.

In the past, workers were happy to earn 30 pounds a month, and now their wages were 10-15 times higher.

More and more workers choose not to find jobs in the south, but in the new factories in the mainland, they are lucky enough to have a lower cost of living and closer to home.

"Hiring is becoming more and more difficult," said a factory owner. "I usually hire thirty or forty people.

This year, 5000 yuan will be able to hire 20 people a month. "


Many factories have been closed, and only 17 of them are on the streets.

Survival of the fittest.

They must take the high-end route and stop producing cheap clothes.

Said Mr. Zhan, the head of the local jeans Association.

At the same time, floods in Pakistan and Australia, export ban in India, coupled with the revolution in the Middle East, make cotton prices unbearable.

To reduce costs, designers have started producing jeans with polyester fibers.

Shockwaves from Xintang have begun to appear.

Analysts say the profits of Swedish clothing giant Haines Maurice dropped sharply at the end of last year.


The reality is that there is no place to replace manufacturing in China.

Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries have lower cost, but hardware and scale can not compare with China.

"Clothing companies should be vigilant, because the day of" disposable clothes "is over.

Atkins, an expert in Hongkong jeans, said: "they have spent a lot of money over the years to get more profits.

They plundered China's production line, and now they are beginning to suffer. "
