The 109th session Canton Fair Second light industry import and export since its opening President of chamber of Commerce Wang Zhongqi and vice president Zhang Jie led the chamber of Commerce to the booth of the exhibitors to investigate the order and the business of this year.

Some enterprises reflect that the buyers of the first two days of the two phase of the Canton Fair are less than the previous period, and the order is not as good as last year. The current situation of foreign trade and import and export is still very complicated. On the one hand, the world economy continues to recover, Europe and the United States. market Demand is booming, enterprises are increasing in hand orders, on the other hand, production and operation costs are high, and profits from foreign trade enterprises are being occupied, which has dampened the enthusiasm of enterprises to receive orders. Experts predict that if this situation continues, the import and export macro and micro data will be seriously differentiated this year. That is to say, in the absence of actual growth in the total export volume, the export volume will still maintain a relatively fast growth rate, and the profits of enterprises will be seriously reduced.

The rapid rise in industrial raw materials caused by rising commodity prices is a common worry for most enterprises. Light industry enterprises reflect that due to soaring prices of commodities such as oil and natural rubber, the cost of shoemaking, bags and other industries will be greatly reduced.

Enterprises reflect that the continuous increase in labor costs has become the norm, even during the international financial crisis.

With the implementation of a prudent monetary policy, SMEs will not only be more difficult to borrow this year, but also have higher interest rates. In addition, coal, electricity, oil and spanportation prices and land and rental costs are rising, and the daily operating costs of enterprises are rising.

Most enterprises believe that the rapid increase of production costs will undoubtedly weaken the international competitiveness of Chinese enterprises in varying degrees, but we should also see that the cost of foreign competitors is also rising. Enterprises expect foreign trade policy to remain stable.
