Nearly 40% of furniture companies in the South China Sea have not received orders for next year.

The decline in external demand and insufficient domestic sales are the two dilemmas facing export companies this year. Following Guangdong Customs announced that the province's processing trade export growth has continued to decline since June, Foshan Nanhai Inspection and Quarantine Bureau has released a survey report on 15 categories of exporting SMEs in the South China Sea, showing that exports fell 1.8%, toys, textiles, lamps, furniture Export companies have the biggest dilemma.


“Net exports account for a smaller proportion of China’s G DP, from 8.9% in 2007 to 3.9% last year. This year’s forecast is about 2.8%, so the impact of lower external demand on us is smaller than in 2008.” Fan Jianping (microblogging), director of the Center for Economic Forecasting, said in an interview with a reporter from Nandu. The economy's dependence on foreign trade is easing, which means that traditional processing and manufacturing export enterprises have indeed reached the threshold of transformation and upgrading.


"The situation is complicated and difficult to judge"

Guangdong's export industry has always concentrated on labor-intensive industries such as light industry and small-scale manufacturing. Foshan Nanhai Inspection and Quarantine Bureau survey of local small and medium-sized enterprises showed that exports fell by 1.8%, and toys, textiles, lamps and furniture export enterprises were the most distressed. Nanhai Customs statistics show that from January to November this year, the export value of Nanhai furniture and its parts was US$480 million, a year-on-year increase of 9.6%, which was less than the overall growth rate of 22.5% in Nanhai District during the same period. According to industry sources, the overall situation of small-scale processing and manufacturing is not optimistic, especially in labor-intensive industries such as textiles, toys, furniture, and leather goods.

Huizhou Huidong Shoes Industry Association Vice President and Huizhou Zhenpeng Shoes Factory Chairman Chen You introduced the current situation of Huizhou Shoes to the Southern Reporter. "At the end of the year, the orders received by enterprises are ready to produce products for spring and summer next year. From a seasonal perspective, this time is also considered a small peak season, and the orders are quite a lot. However, compared with the same period last year and the previous year, there is a general decline of 15%-20%."

Yu Maosheng, deputy secretary-general of the Guangdong Light Industry Association, said in an interview with the Southern Reporter that "the situation in the Middle East, European debt, and economic recovery in the United States have a great impact on international trade. The statistics of various parties are different, and the reporting of various types of enterprises is difficult to use scientific monitoring. The evidence of the way can explain that the situation in the year is difficult to infer.” Guan Weiping, deputy director of the SMEs of Guangdong Province, also expressed the same view to the Southern Reporter. “The situation is complicated and difficult to judge.”


The largest toy factory employees reduced nearly 1,000 people

“The first few months were the traditional peak season. It was also our busiest time. Many companies also got orders for foreign orders. At the moment, they have high demands on people. We have also raised wages, but we still can’t stay. Workers. Many factories can't do it, they have to reluctantly give up or cancel orders, otherwise they can't pay for work, and the penalty is H old." Huizhou Huidong Shoes Industry Association Vice President, Zhenpeng Shoes Factory Chairman Chen Youunai I told the Southern Reporter.


“Before 2008, Chinese and American companies exported 20 containers for a day, and now they can only export 10 containers a day. The reduction of orders is clear at a glance.” The internal staff of the China-US toy factory, the largest toy factory in the South China Sea, told reporters that employees of the company for nearly 4 months Reduced by nearly a thousand people.

In the face of frustrated exports and weak manufacturing growth, domestic sales, inland areas and emerging markets have become the choice of many companies. Ye Cunyi, the foreign trade manager of Zhongshan Guangdong Tongtong Steel Pipe Industry Co., Ltd., told the Southern Reporter that the company will further develop the Southeast Asian market next year. “At present, our export benefits are relatively good in Australia, Singapore and other places. The growth in Southeast Asia is expected to be 3%-4%. Compared with the decline in the European and American markets, this score is already good."

Many ceramic enterprises in Nanhai, Foshan said that the European and American markets suffered setbacks this year and their performances have declined. In the new market, the Middle East and South America are relatively strong. In the established market, Southeast Asia and Hong Kong have relatively good export performance, and their performance contribution accounts for about 20%.

Ye Zhizhong, the president of China Red-brand Enterprise Group and the executive director of the China Private Entrepreneurs Association, told the Southern Reporter that “the current predicament is that international consumption impulses are significantly suppressed and consumption tends to be rational and stable. This is not an industry, industry or country issue. The problem of changing the concept of consumption under the complexity of the global economy."

Group financing


Zheng Shiping, deputy director of the Office of the Inspection and Quarantine Bureau of Nanhai, said in an interview with Nandu reporter yesterday that the foreign trade enterprises are different in industry, and the cycle and characteristics of orders and production are not the same. Therefore, a statistical table may not fully reflect the status quo of import and export, but this The second survey will provide some reference for the bureau to summarize this year's work and plan for next year.


Zheng Shiping said that the relevant departments have encouraged the development of technology in lighting and home appliance enterprises from multiple levels and entered the high-end market. For example, the Inspection and Quarantine Bureau has invited German certification agencies to help Nanhai lighting companies to pack and do certification, which not only reduces the cost, but also helps the qualified enterprises to enter the high-end market with higher profits in Europe.


Other companies have begun to move production bases to inland areas. A lighting factory in Nanhai entered Guizhou through investment promotion. According to the company, because the local young labor force is not willing to work in the province, a prefecture-level city often has millions of surplus labor, and the company relocates its production base, which greatly reduces labor costs.

Packing and issuing bonds is also a breakthrough point that many companies are striving for. Following Foshan’s successful issuance of the first batch of 3.8 billion-scale bonds in November, the Guangdong SME Development Association recently jointly organized the SME Collective Bonds to jointly issue RMB 5 billion in Guangdong Province’s small and medium-sized enterprises. Corporate collection bonds. “5 billion yuan as a way for small and medium-sized enterprises to raise funds for group financing better solves the imbalance between risks and benefits in SME financing.” Xie Wei, secretary general of the Guangdong Small and Medium Enterprises Development Promotion Association, told the Southern Reporter, but it also set A certain threshold, high-quality enterprises with relatively healthy operation and operation are available, and small-scale SMEs are still difficult to participate.
