Wenling shoe and hat industry keeps warm in winter
“The company does not need to lay off employees. We are still urgently recruiting skilled workers. Export orders for sports and leisure shoes have been arranged until May this year.” On the afternoon of January 6, during an interview in the shoe town Wenling, Cai Jianhua, chairman of Taizhou Boyang Shoes Co., Ltd., happily introduced the production situation.
Affected by the financial crisis, the business volume of Wenling Shoe Industry dropped last year, many companies fell into unprecedented difficulties, and some companies closed down. After several months of reshuffling, shoe and hat companies that have adjusted their production varieties in a timely manner have gained new opportunities for development. Recently, export orders for sports and casual shoes and straw hats have surged, and production is in full swing.
“Boyang Shoes mainly produces sports and leisure shoes, with an output value of over 100 million yuan last year. It is the largest sports shoe export base in Taizhou. Its products are sold to more than 100 countries and regions including the United States, and it has achieved zero returns on product quality for many years. Cai Jianhua, chairman of the company, said: “What the company is worried about now is that after orders have doubled, although employees have been mobilized to work overtime, the products are still not finished in time. The company is in urgent need of skilled workers, and is even more worried that it will not be able to recruit employees after the year.”
“With Compared with the previous few months, the production situation of enterprises has improved significantly last month.” Wang Xiazeng, chairman of Taizhou Qijiang Shoes Co., Ltd. located in Hengfeng Street, Wenling, told the Herald reporter, “The improvement of the enterprise situation started in November last year. The State Administration of Taxation appropriately increased the export tax rebate rate for labor-intensive commodities such as textiles, clothing, and furniture. The export tax rebate rate for footwear was raised from the original 11% to 13%. Don’t underestimate these 2 percentage points. It is very important for our foreign trade business. For enterprises, this is the survival profit of our enterprise. It can be said that the increase in the export tax rebate rate is the main factor for the “recovery” of the shoe industry economy.”
Wang Hazeng also analyzed that the exchange rate between the RMB and the US dollar has fluctuated steadily in recent months. Large, this is also very beneficial to foreign trade companies. The third reason is that the price of raw materials has dropped, allowing companies to save a lot of production costs.
Zhejiang Tianyiqi Shoes Co., Ltd., with an annual output value of over 100 million yuan, is a Sino-foreign joint venture shoe industry. It mainly produces boss shoes, and its products are exported to Bulgaria, Romania, Argentina and other countries. It is understood that due to the impact of the financial crisis, the company has fallen into unprecedented difficulties in the past six months or so, and the company’s profits have declined sharply. In order to keep the company from going bankrupt and keep the workers from leaving the factory, the company gritted its teeth and worked hard to start a business. After laying off a few employees, all the production profits were used to maintain the factory and workers.
“Now companies no longer lay off employees.” Cai Yiqin, chairman of Zhejiang Tianyiqi Shoes Co., Ltd., told the Herald reporter that the gradual standardization of labor and employment is good news for the company. His current operating situation has improved from a few months ago Former dullness turned to optimism.
Cai Yiqin said that last year, affected by the international financial crisis, a large number of companies closed down in the heartland of the shoemaking industry in Dongguan, Guangdong and Jinjiang, Fujian. For shoemaking companies in Wenling that are still insisting on production, there are fewer competitors. , which is conducive to market development and concentration of production orders. This is a great new opportunity for the development of Tianyiqi Shoes Industry. AADFWGREGTR
