Zhenjiang's Export Processing Shoe Enterprises Are Suffering From Sharp Orders.

This year, influenced by various factors, such as the depreciation of the US dollar, rising raw materials, tightening of money, rising labor costs and the reduction of export tax rebates, some foreign trade enterprises in Zhenjiang are experiencing the most difficult period in history. Some enterprises even dare not take orders from foreign trade again.

Especially the small export processing enterprises, such as export textiles, shoemaking and so on, are even more upset.

The reporter learned from the head of the textile and light Bureau of Zhenjiang inspection and quarantine bureau that the number of export garments tested by them in the past few years is increasing year by year.

With the depreciation of the US dollar, the number of export garments tested by them has dropped by nearly 10% this year.

Talking about the operation of the company this year, Wang Chaoda, head of the planning department of Zhenjiang Ge Wei Garments Co., Ltd. poured water.

He told reporters that the children's garments produced by GE Wei Clothing Co. Ltd. were all exported to the United States.

Because of the OEM production, the profit that enterprises earn from each garment is very limited.

Since the beginning of this year, the US dollar has continued to depreciate, and the cost of raw materials and labor has been increasing.

Wang Chao said that because of the constant exchange rate adjustment, enterprises have been afraid to sign long-term contracts to reduce risks.

So, after finishing these orders in June, there will be no list to do in 7~8.

Nearly 600 workers will have to eat. At present, the company is considering some domestic orders to maintain its basic operation.

Zhenjiang Kai Tian handicraft company is a shoe making enterprise. All the shoes are exported, and they are all settled in US dollars.

Hu, manager of the company, told reporters that last year, about 4000000 pairs of shoes produced by the company were sold to more than 20 countries and regions, and the sale reached about 50000000 yuan.

The export processing of shoes is really a small profit. Some people may not believe that the profit of processing a pair of shoes is only a few cents.

As prices and labor costs rise, compared with the same period last year, the cost of producing a pair of shoes has increased by nearly 40%, plus the depreciation of the US dollar. Although the company is still busy as usual, but because there is basically no profit to make, Hu manager's heart is not happy at all.

In view of this situation, in addition to the enterprises themselves seeking countermeasures, reporters learned that the Zhenjiang inspection and quarantine bureau is also actively guiding foreign trade enterprises to make good use of preferential policies of regional origin, and expand trade with Chile, Pakistan, Asia Pacific, ASEAN and other countries and regions.

As of June this year, a total of 884 preferential certificates of origin were granted to foreign trade enterprises for export to Chile, Pakistan, Asia Pacific, ASEAN and other countries and regions, with a visa amount of US $about 34000000. Therefore, enterprises have been granted a preferential tariff relief of about 1700000 dollars for import duties.

According to the certificate of origin certificate issued by the Zhenjiang inspection and Quarantine Bureau, in recent years, China has vigorously launched bilateral or multilateral trade with various countries and established free trade zones with each other. According to the rules of origin and the list of goods that are mutually observed in the negotiations, according to the difference between the H.S. codes of commodities, the import and export tariffs of the members of the agreement countries are given preferential tariff or even zero tariff.

This is a mutually beneficial and win-win trade agreement which is not subject to various trade measures and technical barriers.

This has greatly contributed to the volume of trade between the member states of the agreement.

This is also a common form of trade in international trade.

According to the trade agreement, the voucher is the preferential certificate of origin signed by the member countries.

The official signature organ of our country is the entry-exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau authorized by the State General Administration of quality supervision and quarantine.

Zhenjiang entry exit inspection and quarantine bureau is the only official body to sign such preferential certificate of origin in Zhenjiang.

Only by meeting the requirements of the agreement and obtaining the regional preferential certificate of origin issued by the Zhenjiang inspection and Quarantine Bureau, will it be possible to get a reduction or exemption from the tariff in the member countries that import the goods.

This undoubtedly brings new hope to the export enterprises in the predicament.

This will not only promote enterprises to develop new trading partners, but also expand exports.

It is also possible to share tariff preferences with member importers to increase export commodity prices and digest some adverse factors such as depreciation of the US dollar, thereby enhancing profit margins.

According to the Zhenjiang inspection and Quarantine Bureau, with the depreciation of the US dollar and the change of the international trade situation, regional trade will play a greater role in China's foreign trade with its own advantages.

Regional preferential certificate of origin, this convenient trade pass will also play an increasingly important role in this form of trade.

With the increasing number of regional trade between China and other countries,

The inspection and quarantine departments will also formulate relevant policies and take necessary measures to further enhance the publicity of knowledge and related policies in the future, so that more enterprises can enjoy these preferential policies and help export enterprises get out of difficulties.
