Summary of the work of the 98th Canton Fair Textile and Apparel Exhibition Area

There were 4,245 booths in the textile and clothing hall of the 98th Canton Fair, and 2,342 exhibitors. Under the unified leadership and deployment of the Ministry of Commerce and the General Assembly, the Textile Chamber of Commerce has successfully completed the work of the textile and apparel exhibition area through the joint efforts of all participating member companies. The relevant situation is summarized as follows:

First, the transaction situation

This year is the first year of the abolition of textile quotas. Due to the restrictions imposed by the United States and Europe, most of China's textile export enterprises in the first 10 months experienced twists and turns in order to grab orders, grab exports, stay in ports and under-employment. Prior to the opening of the fair, the sixth consultation of China-US textile trade failed. This time, more uncertain factors were added to the exhibitors of the fair, and the number of merchants in the United States was significantly reduced. They are very cautious. As of October 20, the transaction volume of the fair was US$4.508 billion, a decrease of 3.35% compared with the previous session. Among them, the transaction to the United States was 546 million US dollars, down 38.88% from the previous session; the transaction to the EU was 1.707 billion US dollars, down 1.17% from the previous session; the transaction to the Middle East was 459 million US dollars.

2. Further grasp the special installation exhibition of textile and clothing halls, promote the brand by cloth exhibition, and promote the transaction by brand.

For the exhibition of textile and clothing pavilions of this fair, merchants and enterprises generally reflect an increase from the previous level. The improvement of the exhibition level further highlights the image and value of the brand and promotes the transaction. Such as the Shanghai Silk, Shanghai Association, Guangdong Silk and other booths, the exhibition style is very commensurate with its fashion collection, the number of merchants and the transaction situation are quite good. Companies with better exhibition standards include Jiangsu Haotian, Jiangsu Soho, Zhejiang Kaixi, Youngor, Guangdong Silk, and Mingrui.

3. Promote the development and launch of new products of enterprises and increase the added value of products.

At this fair, new products and new technologies are another highlight of the textile and clothing pavilion. Apart from the high-quality exhibition, the new products launched this time have several characteristics: the product panel design is more innovative and distinctive; functional and environmentally friendly. The development of fabrics of type products has been further developed, such as nano fabrics, knitted denim, colored silk, new motorcycles, etc., which not only increases the added value of products, but also breaks through the green barriers and becomes a magic weapon to attract foreign businessmen.

4. Formulate a price coordination plan to combat counterfeit and shoddy products, protect intellectual property rights, and ensure good business order.

Before the fair, I will develop a coordinated plan for two yarns, two silks, silk, hemp cloth, flower bleaching cloth, woven garments, knitted garments and home textiles, and through the Canton Fair newsletter and library publications in member companies. Extensive publicity, exhibiting companies to conscientiously abide by, the current trade fair did not find violation of the minimum price and industry guidance price transactions.

According to the unified requirements of the General Assembly, I will formulate measures for the protection of intellectual property rights in textile and clothing halls, and designate special personnel to take charge of this work. I will take the inspection of infringement of intellectual property rights as an important task in the pavilion. Focus on the special installation area and conduct a comprehensive inspection. If any violations are found, we will promptly clarify the situation and properly handle it. At the same time, take seriously the reports of exhibiting companies, and verify that the report is true. It is strictly required that exhibiting companies that violate the regulations will remove the violations or infringements. We also keep in touch with the provincial and municipal trading groups and the General Office of the General Assembly, and through communication, enhance communication and collaboration, work together to protect intellectual property rights, and maintain the order of negotiation.

3. Suggestions for the competent government departments and the textile and clothing pavilions of the fair

1. In view of the unclear prospects of the US market this year, the company has no choice but to worry about the export situation. The company hopes that the government will reach an agreement with the United States as soon as possible.

2. In response to the disorderly growth of exports to the United States this year, a large number of goods are stranded in Hong Kong. Enterprises are calling for the management of US textile exports next year, whether or not they reach an agreement with the United States, in order to facilitate orderly exports and prevent the loss of orders.

3. According to the company's report, there are too many clothing and apparel exhibitions around Guangzhou. There is a Jinhan clothing exhibition next to the Liuhua Road Exhibition Hall. So that the merchants can't clarify which is the real Canton Fair, which will have an impact on the Canton Fair and divert a large number of merchants. Influenced the status and influence of the Canton Fair as China's first exhibition.

4. According to the company's report, during the Canton Fair, the price of accommodation in Guangzhou Hotel rose sharply, and some merchants considered it unacceptable, so they canceled the plan to participate in the Canton Fair.

5, in the division of the exhibition area, I hope to be able to refine and reflect professionalism, for example, to establish professional exhibition areas such as children's wear, denim, underwear, fashion apparel, socks and so on, to facilitate customers to find, in line with the development trend of international exhibitions, to maintain the vitality of the Canton Fair.

6. Due to the restrictions imposed on some of my clothing in the United States and Europe in recent years, the demand for home textiles and fabric products in the international market has increased, competitiveness has increased, and home textiles and fabric booths have been unable to meet the needs. It is recommended to increase the number of booths.

7. It is suggested that when formulating special installation and exhibition regulations, the Foreign Trade Center should increase communication with the Chamber of Commerce to better facilitate the continuous improvement of the exhibition work and welcome the arrival of the 100th Canton Fair.

8. In the booth arrangement, there is a phenomenon of heavy production and light circulation. At present, in China's foreign trade, expanding trade channels and strengthening sales are still a prominent problem. It is suggested that in the brand building and the Canton Fair exhibition, we should pay attention to the booth arrangement of well-known foreign trade enterprises and large-scale circulation foreign trade enterprises, so that trademark brands and corporate brands should be equally important.
