subject: Market Aspect: Yiwu Christmas Gifts Will Continue To Be Cooling - Yiwu, Gifts - Gifts & Crafts [print this page] By industry sales cycles, in August for the Christmas business operators, Yiwu, destined to be a "watershed." From September, domestic procurement Chamber of Commerce become relatively more in the domestic market is expected to "peak" looking forward to operating account. But business users are also concerned that price increases would have a greater impact of domestic purchasers, and their sale of "winter period" or will continue.
Trade stranded Business year zero yield
Wenzhou Wang Yu, a power company last year, Ryan is still working, the annual income of 60,000 yuan or so. He later resigned to Yiwu to start the first business. He inspected the Yiwu market, found that the combined effect of Yiwu obvious Christmas gift industry and its export has been extended to more than 100 countries, the total accounts for 2 / 3, the annual growth rate of foreign sales are about 30%. Together with his Christmas gift, Wenzhou has some corporate resources under comprehensive consideration, he decided to open a Christmas gift in Yiwu sales commission agencies.
Last year, Wang Yu invested around 5 million "large pool of good Mountain Christmas Boutique" opened successfully. Proud of his success he did not expect, shop soon, the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, RMB appreciation, rising raw material prices one after another, to purchase foreign Yiwu decreased. Wang Yu said that his shop behind is a passage leading to Yiwu Jinmao Tower, Jinmao Tower upstairs there are many foreign trade companies, last year between this foreign a lot of the aisle, but this year scattered few. Opened nearly a year, his business has remained sluggish. "So far, my income close to zero." Wang Yu said.
In fact, a lot of Christmas gifts Yiwu outlets facing the same problem. Wang Yu told reporters that he learned from a number of peers, where the operating account has shrunk this year's foreign trade turnover rate of 50%. A company called "Space" Christmas gift outlets and even foreign trade turnover has shrunk by 2 / 3.
Moreover, foreign procurement has changed subtly. Wang Yu told reporters, compared to last year, significantly increased the procurement of foreign goods categories, reducing the amount of each purchase of goods. Some foreign investors and even a kind of commodity goods only to one or two cases. His analysis, foreign may want to reduce business risk in this way, because if a single kind of product purchase excessive, if poor sales, its loss is relatively large. However, Wang Yu said: "The mass production of similar products manufacturers lower production costs are relatively foreign to this approach, and this is worse for us."
Prices Business will continue to be deserted
Generally speaking, Christmas gifts manufacturers sample processing cycle for the two months, plus one or two months more than a month Distribution Issues transit time and foreign time of 67 months each year becomes foreign to Yiwu Gold Christmas season purchases. Because regardless of the shipping time-consuming, from about September, domestic buyers will come here one after another. That is, after several months of foreign trade, "winter", the annual domestic sales of the industry "peak" around the corner.
Some optimistic and businessmen believe that the changes in the international economic situation, the impact of domestic buyers do not, order at least same as last year, procurement will not be changed much. Insiders also say the next day may not be better, because the product price increases may affect the number of orders for domestic buyers.
Learned in the interview, in response to the pressure of rising raw material prices, a lot of Christmas gifts price was up 5% to 10% or more. To 15 cm diameter glass sphere, for example, the current price of 7 to 8 yuan, up 10% over the same period last year or so. Product price increases impact on business sales account how much? A business family told reporters that he has a name is Lin's old customers, is native of Romania Qingtian Chinese. The old customers to Yiwu ago to tell him that he was set to 5 this year, the cargo container. But, come to Yiwu, Lin found that prices here have been different than last year's rate increase, combined with his sales of these products is not optimistic expectations, eventually he will have two cabinet goods. The business users frankly, to some extent prices will reduce demand for the product.
There are many positive business families told reporters after the Olympics, foreign arrivals increase, the business may be better. Although prices have risen, but relatively Other Region products, Yiwu market price advantage still exists, I believe next year will come to Yiwu, the number of foreign more.
