Marcus Varoli, chairman of the Mediterranean textile factory, said that the South African Standard Bureau and the trade and Industry Bureau (DTI) issued certificates to a Chinese company to allow the company to export garment fabrics in the mining industry. This decision shook their efforts to revitalize the South African textile industry.

The South African standard bureau allows the Chinese company to export fabrics, which means pferring South Africa's job opportunities to China, thereby enhancing China's opportunity to enter the South African market.

He added that the move will further hurt the South African textile sector because Chinese companies have more advantages than South African domestic companies.

South Africa is facing serious unemployment problems.

In 2009, the Ministry of trade and industry considered providing production incentives for the textile industry, but their decision now completely deviated from the 2009 plan.

At the same time, China has an advantage over South African enterprises in terms of cheap labor and cheap fabrics. China's fabric cost is 5-6 cheaper than that of South Africa.
