Made in Japan: stick to the scorpion tail at the top of profits.

Some scholars have compared "made in Japan" to "scorpion tail". As the saying goes, "scorpion tail poison (only)", its meaning does not need to be said naturally. Nowadays, textile enterprises are generally facing the pressure of cost increase, and the price increase of products has become the trend of the times. In the process of constantly catching up with new technologies and paying attention to fashion design, how to control product pricing power and maintain profit growth becomes the most concerned problem for textile enterprises.

Targeting common target markets

"The wardrobe of Japanese consumers is already packed with all kinds of clothing. Even in the same category, you can see many styles and colors."

The sweeping of the financial turmoil has not only brought the nightmare of Wall Street speculators forward, but also exposed the weakness of the Japanese consumer market. "The wardrobe of Japanese consumers is already full of all kinds of clothing, even in the same category, you can see many styles and colors of clothing, and they often need enough power to buy new clothes," Fukui Shingo, President of the new cotton and interior company, said.

In recent years, the Japanese government has strongly stimulated domestic consumption, resulting in the increasingly saturated market of durable goods, such as textiles and clothing. After the outbreak of the financial crisis, the Japanese clothing consumption concept began to favor the clothing brands represented by UNIQLO, with various styles and low prices. Many factors drove Japanese high-end fabric manufacturers to focus on overseas markets.

Li Yu, deputy general manager of Tianjin new textile import and Export Co., Ltd., introduced one of the organizers of the exhibition. "In May 2009, the impact of the financial crisis is still spreading, and the export enterprises are generally having a bad time. Under the call of the government to expand the domestic market, Tianjin is trying to get rid of the export and low-grade textile business mode and study how to introduce Japan's advanced fabrics to China's high-end clothing brand.

It is understood that the predecessor of Tianjin new textiles import and Export Corporation is the Tianjin branch of China Textiles Import and Export Corporation, whose main business is textile exports. After in-depth exchanges with many Japanese partners, Japan's new and internal cotton and cotton company, the two sides gathered together excellent quality and high value-added Japanese textiles, and finally came true for the exhibition concept of providing business platform from high level buyers in China.
