Zhejiang Leather And Fur Industry Exports Suffered A Full Embarrassment In April

Zhejiang's industries, which are trapped in many factors such as high oil prices, tight money and exchange rate adjustment, are becoming less attractive.

Zhejiang economic and Trade Commission data show that in April, the province's industrial growth rate increased, industrial production, sales and exports three indicators showed a downward trend at the same time, Zhejiang economic and Trade Commission said, "many uncertainties" are seriously affecting the province's industrial economic operation.

According to the "economic and trade situation analysis" released by Zhejiang economic and Trade Commission, in April this year, Zhejiang's Industrial Enterprises above designated size increased their value added by 66 billion 286 million yuan, an increase of 9.6% over the previous year, 5.3 percentage points lower than that of the previous month, 330 billion 566 million yuan in sales and 16.6% in the same period last year, 6.1 percentage points lower than last month, and 81 billion 332 million yuan in oral delivery, an increase of 11.2% over the previous year, 3.5 percentage points lower than last month.

The traditional light industry is even more unsightly. In April, the industrial added value of 9.6% was the lowest monthly increase since Zhejiang's "fifteen", which is 8.1 percentage points lower than that of the same month last year.

Data show that this added value is even more difficult in traditional light industry. The growth rate of light industry in Zhejiang has come down in an all-round way, especially in the traditional light industrial production dominated by export. The output value of tobacco industry and beverage manufacturing industry has increased by -16.3% and 16.1% respectively, a drop of 27.5 and 20.2 percentage points from last month. The output value of textile industry and textile and garment industry has decreased by 6.6 and 2.1 percentage points respectively compared with last month in the month of April.

The international trade situation is not optimistic, but also affects the export oriented Zhejiang light industry. In April, Zhejiang's Industrial Enterprises above Designated Size completed the export delivery value of 81 billion 332 million yuan, an increase of 11.2%, an increase of 3.5 percentage points from the previous month.

In light of the industry, Zhejiang's light industrial export delivery index is far behind that of heavy industry.

In the manufacturing industry where the 16 export growth exceeded the average level of the province, there were 12 heavy industries, while the light industry only had 4, which were 23.7%, 23.5%, 15.4% and 18.7% respectively, including beverage manufacturing, wood processing, paper making, paper processing and printing.

Zhejiang's traditional export industries, including textile, textile and garment industries and leather fur and feather products industry, are facing an awkward situation. The three industries increased by 6.5%, -0.6% and 0.2% this month, down 11.7, 13.9 and 5.2 percentage points from last month's growth.

The foreign-funded enterprises in Zhejiang also showed a trend of sustained low growth. In April, the foreign-invested enterprises in the province achieved an industrial added value of 9 billion 89 million yuan, an increase of 5.3% over the same period last year, down 2.7 percentage points from the previous month, and the growth rate has been less than 10% for 6 consecutive months.

The proportion of the total industrial added value in the whole province continued to decrease in 1~2, March and April, which were 14.3%, 14% and 13.7% respectively.

Transformation and upgrading is imminent. Experts from the school of management of Zhejiang University believe that the reasons for the poor state of Zhejiang's industrial economy are diverse, including the continued appreciation of RMB, high oil prices, and higher financing costs of SMEs. "Since last year, the export price of goods exported to the RMB exchange rate has become the norm of export enterprises. Once the price is not good enough, enterprises will easily lose money, and it is better to slow down the export speed than losses."

The pressure on SMEs in Zhejiang is not limited to this.

"Prices of raw materials, labor costs and policy adjustments are also hard for them to bear."

The above experts believe that from the government level, we should fully understand the survival status of enterprises and start from all aspects. "Especially in terms of funds, the financing cost of SMEs is very high and the pressure is very high."

The Zhejiang provincial economic and Trade Commission also clearly felt that the above industrial economic situation was not optimistic. The Commission considered that the major indicators of industrial production, sales and exports in Zhejiang had dropped considerably in April, and the difficulty of maintaining a steady and rapid growth of the industrial economy has been significantly increased.

However, the Zhejiang economic and Trade Commission is also very confident. The Committee reminds Zhejiang that we should seize the important opportunity period of pformation and upgrading, make full use of the "forced mechanism" of international environmental change and macroeconomic regulation and control, and strive to improve the quality and efficiency of industrial economic growth.
