The topic of her speech was: Economic Operation, Problems and Countermeasures of China's Luggage Industry. Economic characteristics of luggage industry In 2007, the luggage and apparel industry maintained its rapid growth despite the slowdown or decline in the production and export growth of other industries in the leather, fur and products sectors. The performance of the luggage industry was outstanding. In 2007, China's export of travel goods and luggage was 10.82 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 24% over the previous year and an acceleration of 5 percentage points over the previous year. The import was 350 million U.S. dollars, up 51% over the previous year and an acceleration of 7 percentage points over the previous year. In 2007, the import and export of leather goods increased 21% over the export growth rate. The average unit price of import and export of bags increased, while the import unit price was much higher than the import unit price. The export concentration was still low, the first place was still the United States. In 2007, the total industrial output value of the luggage industry above designated size reached 66.8 billion yuan, an increase of 28% over the same period of last year and an acceleration of 9 percentage points. The output of natural leather bags was 840 million, an increase of 26% over the same period of last year and an acceleration of 20 percentage points. Leather industry is facing the problem At present, the problems facing the leather industry in China are mainly three aspects: continuous improvement of product costs, reduced profit margins, especially the full implementation of the new labor contract law, leather goods enterprises to adjust stage; neighboring countries to increase investment , increased international competition, More and more countries and regions in East Asia and South Asia such as India, Pakistan and Thailand have stepped up investment and investment in leather goods processing, competing for markets and exacerbating competition. They have a serious shortage of talents and their brand effects are not outstanding. Leather industry trends forecast In 2008, the production and export of leather goods in China, especially luggage and luggage, will still maintain a relatively high growth rate, but their benefits will decline. For the leather-based industries mainly processing outside China, they are under the pressure of structural adjustment and product upgrading Outstanding, leather goods production and processing has emerged from the eastern coastal areas to our country or neighboring countries signs of the transfer; leading enterprises listed, the domestic market brand is brewing in the domestic market competition will be more intense. In the leather goods industry, export profit is getting lower and lower, more and more enterprises are going to switch to domestic sales. Some large-scale export-leading enterprises with stronger economic strength are stepping up their research on the domestic market and brand packaging to open up the domestic market.
