Textile Manufacturers  & Suppliers in China | Asia

The textile industry in China is the largest in the world in both overall production and exports. China exported $274 billion in textiles in 2013, a volume that was nearly seven times that of India, the second largest exporter with $40 billion in exports. Against all predictions of decline of the textile industry in China, because of the increases of wages and some relocation in lower cost countries, the textile industry in China, on the contrary, has been subject to a strong consolidation, attracting the most important foreign manufacturers of the world. Compared to other Asian competing countries, China offers a more efficient supply chain management, modern infrastructure and higher production capacity of workers. Also, to keep prices competitive, Chinese factories are shifting from developed and expensive coastal cities to cheaper inland provinces (Other areas to watch are: South Korea, Cambodia, Vietnam and ASEAN countries).

Whatever your destination, the main problems of this sector of industry in Asia are:

  • The textile industry is still very fragmented with thousands of factories producing yarns, fibers and fabrics

  • It is very difficult to obtain a stable production and/ or stable supply for quantity, quality and price

  • language and cultural barriers in negotiation for the production and characteristics of the products, contractual and/or commercial conditions

  • Difficulties in checking the real production capacity of the factory, factory compliance with various industry regulations (e.g. Labor standards, quality standards etc.)

  • Difficulties in finding a reliable partner.
