This news is good news for some practitioners, and for those who need to wear clothes, it means higher prices. Because in order to ensure a certain profit margin, garment enterprises have become one of the main means to raise the factory's ex factory price. This is evident from the rise in the price of clothing since the winter of Harbin. In the cold winter, the price of cotton and jackets for keeping out the cold is no longer the same.

Usually a down garment is about 100 grams, and a down jacket is only 16 yuan from last year. Cotton prices doubled this year compared with last year. Last year, the price of a ton of cotton was around 12500 yuan, and this year the price reached 26000 yuan per ton. The price rise of cotton has also driven up the price of raw materials such as chemical fiber and other fabrics, and some accessories such as zippers are also increasing in price. After estimation, accessories also increased by 15%. Yu Hongyan said that this year, from the construction industry to the catering industry, the rise in labor prices is a common phenomenon. The clothing industry is no exception. At the moment is the peak season for clothing sales, the wages of workers are rising, and the cost of clothing production has also increased. As a result, the cost per garment increased by nearly 20% over the same period last year.

In particular, cotton prices rose most frequently, and the biggest increase.
