South African Standard Bureau Approves Chinese Company'S Export Work Clothes And Fabrics Annoys South African Textile Industry

Marcus Varoli, chairman of the Mediterranean textile factory, said that the South African Standard Bureau and the trade and Industry Bureau (DTI) issued certificates to a Chinese company to allow the company to export garment fabrics in the mining industry. This decision shook their efforts to revitalize the South African textile industry.

The South African standard bureau allows the Chinese company.

He added that the move will further hurt the South African textile sector because Chinese companies have more advantages than South African domestic companies.

South Africa is facing serious unemployment problems.

In 2009, the Ministry of trade and industry considered providing production incentives for the textile industry, but their decision now completely deviated from the 2009 plan.

At the same time, China has an advantage over South African enterprises in terms of cheap labor and cheap fabrics. China's fabric cost is 5-6 cheaper than that of South Africa.

Many clothing companies in the United States are trapped in the higher prices of fabrics in Europe and Japan. They hope to use more affordable Chinese fabrics. In December 7th, commissioned by American clothing companies, Li Zhuang Zi, the project manager of New York Lian Fu fabric store, came to China Textile City and communicated with the head of the textile and urban construction management committee, hoping to get the support from China Textile City fabric enterprises and build the fabric Library of China Textile City in New York.

At present, related matters are under negotiation.

Last year, during the spinning Expo, Li Zhuangzi came to Keqiao with the Shanghai world trade procurement group. For the first time, she found that China Textile City had tens of thousands of rich fabrics, and recognized Shaoxing County as the largest textile origin in China.

At that time, Li Zhuangzi, who came to buy a piece of flannelette sample, unexpectedly found a similar fabric, and the unit price was only $6, less than 1/5 of the US local price.

After returning to New York, Li Zhuangzi bought many fabrics from Keqiao again. He felt that the fabric quality of light textile city was still good, and there was a trend of progress. Many fabrics could even replace the fabric of the United States.

According to Li Zhuangzi, 80% of the fabric design and clothing design and production in the United States are concentrated in New York. Therefore, New York has concentrated on a large number of fabrics and garment manufacturers.

However, the purchasing pattern of New York fabrics is different from that of China. Most garment enterprises do not directly face the opportunities of Chinese manufacturers. Most of them purchase materials from local fabric retail stores, and prices are also high.

After the financial crisis last year, the local clothing design companies in the United States became stricter in controlling procurement costs. Many companies wanted to find products other than Europe and Japan to replace expensive fabrics from European and Japanese countries, but most garment enterprises could not directly purchase fabrics for a certain fabric to China, but only hoped to build a Chinese fabric library locally.
