November 24th, according to Guangzhou Customs statistics, from 1 to October this year, Guangdong 3 billion 440 million pairs of shoes exported, worth 10 billion 150 million US dollars, increased 20.5% and 24.4% respectively over the same period last year. In the past 3 months, the size of Guangdong's shoe exports has shrank. Exit There was a continuous decrease in the volume chain ratio, of which 290 million pairs were exported in October, an increase of 1.8%, a decrease of 3.1%, a value of 960 million dollars, an increase of 30%, a decrease of 11.3% in the ring.

According to the analysis of Guangzhou customs, at present, China's footwear exports are still dominated by traditional European and American markets. Recently, foreign trade protectionism has concentrated on the outbreak, RMB appreciation has accelerated and the cost of raw materials has increased. These are the three major challenges facing footwear exports.

At present, not only the European Union and other western countries continue to impose anti-dumping duties on Chinese footwear products, but also developing countries such as Argentina, Brazil and Turkey have made decisions to impose anti-dumping duties or safeguard measures on Chinese footwear products.

As the export of footwear products is mainly settled through the US dollar, the appreciation of the RMB against the US dollar will increase, which will directly compress export profits and will have a greater impact on the export of footwear. At the same time, footwear production costs have increased significantly. First, the prices of raw materials used for shoemaking continued to rise, and cotton (25225, -1225.00, -4.63%) prices continued to hit a new high. Two, the cost of employment is also increasing. In the first half of this year, the average monthly wage of Guangdong employees was 3090 yuan, an increase of 10.1%.
