Meager Profit &Nbsp; Embarrassment Of The Garment Industry

On the one hand, more and more intense "high price grab" war, while it is shrinking corporate profits. Because of the rapid growth of raw materials and labor costs, many garment companies are having a hard time. enterprise Even run at a loss.

Zheng Wei, general manager of Wei Le Garments Co., Ltd., said that the clothing industry has entered the "meager profit era". The cost of raw materials has risen. Meanwhile, the wages of workers have also increased rapidly, but the price of products has not risen, and the profit margins of enterprises are getting smaller and smaller.

　　 Zhejiang Baolong dress Xie Wenjian, chairman of the development limited company, calculated to reporters that if the processing cost of a shirt is 10 yuan, the labor cost will reach at least 6 yuan, and the production cost will be less than 3 yuan. The cost of packaging, transportation, machine depreciation and enterprise management will not be included. A garment that looks like a profit of 10 yuan will be more than 1 yuan at the end of the real business operator's hands, sometimes even the number can not be reached. The cost of a garment is 6 yuan.

Xie Wenjian told reporters that there was a well-known clothing company in the eastern part of Shaoxing city. Last year, more than 200 machines were fully powered, and the profits in one year were only 300 thousand yuan. It may be hard for many people outside the industry to believe it, but in the clothing industry. Meager profit Even a negative profit is an open secret.

Mu Yuanxue, from Guizhou, is a garment sewing worker of Hongming Garments Co. Ltd. in August this year, he received a salary of 3307 yuan. Two years ago, his salary was 1833 yuan, and the growth rate was 80% over the past two years. In the financial room of the enterprise, the reporters saw some workers' wage statements for the same period of 2008 and this year. The proportion of the wage growth of the employees in the same period was mostly between 25%-80%, with an average increase of nearly 50%. Qin Hongxiang, chief executive of the enterprise, told reporters that seven or eight years ago, the ratio of workers' wages to gross profit of enterprises was about 3:7. Now the ratio has been reversed. 7:3 is the rule in the industry. If we don't rely on running volume, we can't make money.

Despite the increasing wages of workers, many enterprises still can not find workers, machines can not stop, lists can not be answered, many enterprises have to raise their wages to "recruit soldiers." Zheng Wei said that such a result caused different employees to compete with each other, and the clothing enterprises eventually became more and more difficult because they had "dug" each other. Although clothing companies know the consequences of such a cycle, there is no alternative.

Under the background of "labor shortage", garment enterprises are very confused and tired.
