    In recent years, knitting industry, industry has expanded rapidly and continuously improve production technology, products, full coverage clothing, decorative and industrial supplies. With the rapid rise of the private economy, the market allocation of resources functions effectively, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Shandong, Guangdong and other provinces to form a unique, industrial chain, supporting the knitting industry cluster. Looking back on 2008, knitting how the development of industrial clusters? I interviewed China knitting Industry Association, the Secretary-General Lin Guang-xing.    Knitting industry situation is grim    In 2008, the knitting industry in the yuan appreciation, rising raw material prices and labor costs, the beginning of the snowstorm, the South floods, Wenchuan earthquake and the U.S. sub-prime mortgage crisis and other negative factors at home and abroad under the influence of business faced with tremendous pressure. Knitting industry sales growth has slowed down a marked decline in profits. Business disruption due to sales, production costs rise, sharp drop in production and operation is extremely difficult. According to National Bureau of Statistics: 2008 1 ~ 11 months, knitting industry, industrial output value of 321.5 billion yuan, up 14.42 percent, down 7.41 percentage points year on year; main business income of 305.8 billion yuan, up 13.57 percent year on year down 8.81 percentage points; profit amounted to 10.349 billion yuan, an increase of 0.02%, down 25.52 percentage points year on year; export delivery value of 124.5 billion yuan, up 7.72 percent, down 6.95 percentage points year on year. National scale enterprises amounted to 102.5265 million pieces production of knitted garments, up 7.26 percent, the level of growth over the year fell 8.21 percentage points. 2008 1 November knitting enterprises above designated size 6941, of which loss-making enterprises up to 19%.    Construction targeted industry cluster    China’s rapidly expanding industrial scale knitting industry, knitting industry, industry clusters to promote the production technology continues to improve, in-depth specialization has promoted manufacturing capacity continues to increase. In 2008 for the knitting industry clusters deepest impression is that many industrial clusters pilot areas of public service innovation platform construction has been markedly improved, industry clusters are systematically optimize the industrial structure. The past, some small enterprises in the local government, the association organized by product quality has been greatly enhanced with low-grade, poor quality of the products have been no one is interested, backward production facilities are gradually out of people’s attention.    Many knitting enterprises have recognized the importance of knitting process, are actively building their own products process database. Foshan City, Guangdong Province, Chamber of Commerce, Zhangcha knitted garments to provide database service designed for small and medium enterprises, businesses can be found in the database for free pattern required process, and even have specialized technical personnel to deploy testing companies, which are for the enterprises to improve product mix provided a strong guarantee. Xiangshan County, Zhejiang Province, Knitting Association, dedicated to cluster the state’s macroeconomic situation of enterprises and industry information, and according to different analysis of the actual situation of enterprises and help enterprises to adjust its strategy of destination and guide the enterprises to differentiate their products and expand into new markets, and truly do to the targeted.   ”Only allow these regional trade organizations to provide information for enterprises in order to really help businesses.” Lam Kwong-hing, that “there is a knitwear industrial cluster phenomenon is the mutual exchange, learn from the brothers, where clusters can be more targeted to understand their needs, to develop and improve. “In 2008, China Knitting Industry Association, the organization Zhejiang Haining Ma Bridge Street, Meili Town, Changshu, Jiangsu, and two Chinese industrial clusters repeatedly learn from each other and exchange the results of the entrepreneur on their own initiative to adjust the enterprise business strategy to complement each other benefit.    Business transformation moves fast    Industrial clusters make more use of mainly small and medium enterprises, a number of local governments to start a more active fiscal policy support for the development of the textile industry, while others have transformation. Example, is known as “China Knitting city,” said Xiangshan County, Zhejiang Province, is the largest international knitted garment production base, “Made in China” produced 10 percent knit Xiangshan. At present, the Xiangshan knitting industry growth has slowed down, is there such polarization, dominant enterprises to maintain good profit levels, lower value-added products for SMEs falling profits, losses increased. Driven by price pressure, some companies began to shift production bases or a separate planning: Yong-Nam knitting is building a more than 80 thousand square meters of knitted City; Fu Hong knitting Shaya County in Xinjiang 115 million investment in the textile 2 items be completed and commissioned; Pengcheng garment manufacturing base in the layout of the county of Jiangxi years; eagle, which has affected up to other companies choose to establish production facilities in Cambodia.    To enhance the competitiveness of the cluster    In 2009, when the knitting industry outlook industry clusters, Lam Kwong-hing, said: “The association can be clustered on various economic types, organizational forms of business are included in the scope of services, providing a full range of services. In particular, guide the industry cluster to strengthen public platform, energy-saving reduction and social responsibility aspects of the building, in personnel training and technical exchanges to implement brand strategies play a role, enabling enterprises to avoid weaknesses, highlighting their own advantage. “    Lam Kwong-hing noted that, in knitting industry clusters, between the upstream and downstream enterprises to effectively maintain the resources, information and technology exchange and sharing, can effectively regulate the industry chain supporting a balance so that all links from the yield and quality on the match and convergence, there is help to avoid duplication and save resources. SMEs to optimize the structure, and truly play the role of the industrial chain, do not ignore the base of this — OEM.    Lam Kwong-shing believes that the competitiveness of our knitted products is still very strong, because no country in the international community has such a complete industrial chain in China, the enterprises in cluster development should consider and explore the path, including business operating model, brand strategy, technological innovation, product innovation, enterprise cooperation and alliances and so on, as quickly as possible to represent industry leader in innovation and development.
