Gao Dekang: What is the way for the transformation of textile and garment enterprises?

The future textile and garment industry is both a manufacturing industry and a high-tech industry, both a fashion industry and a service industry. Textile and apparel companies have begun to pursue diversified development from "Internet +" to "channel +".

Innovation is the core driving force for the sustainable development of a company and the lifeblood of a company. The development of any enterprise is itself a process of continuous innovation. There is no permanent champion in the market, only change and innovation forever. Bosideng Group, founded in 1976, I and 10 farmers in the village, from 8 sewing machines to start a business, after 40 years of struggle, now, we have become a leader in the industry Down Jacket. In the course of 40 years of development, Bosideng has been constantly innovating and transforming, leading the development of enterprises with innovation, and has achieved today's achievements.

In the past two years, China’s overall economic growth rate has slowed down, domestic demand and foreign trade growth have been weak, and the market situation is grim. How to adapt to the " new normal " is a question we all think about together.

The Party Central Committee put forward five development concepts of "innovation, coordination, green, openness, and sharing". This is the " Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" and the longer-term period. The general thinking and general direction of China's economic and social development are also the reform and opening up over the past 30 years. A concentrated expression of development experience. The “Five Developments” concept, among which “innovation” ranks first. It is necessary to lead the "new normal" with innovation, and to lead the "new normal" with innovation as the theme. The new model and new business are constantly emerging. The thousands of sails compete and the hundreds of battles are vigorously leading the Chinese economy to break through the waves.

At present, the world's new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are gestating. Under the background of Industry 4.0 and China Manufacturing 2025, garment manufacturing is undergoing profound and tremendous changes. Made in China 2025, it is said that the transition from a big manufacturing country to a manufacturing powerhouse in three 10 years, specifically to the textile and garment industry, also faces a transition from “big” to “strong”. This is also an opportunity as well as a challenge.

Intelligent Manufacturing is the traditional textile and garment industry to upgrade and move towards the inevitable road textile power. For example, we Bosideng, last year invested 56 million yuan to carry out intelligent automatic transformation of warehousing. In the case of doubling the warehousing business volume, the number of employees did not rise and fall, and the production efficiency was doubled. In the production workshop, the automation template was added. Machine, saving the labor force of the assembly line by 18%, and the production efficiency has increased by nearly 30%. of course,

Intelligent manufacturing is not simply replacing some labor with machines, but integrating “ intelligence ” into every step of enterprise order, supply chain, production, sales and service, creating a flexible supply chain, and adopting the concept of supply-side structural reform. Use the means of intelligent manufacturing to realize the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing.

Revitalizing the real economy, the core is innovation. In recent years our business in technological innovation are groping. In terms of products, we chose water repellent fabric, the surface can bounce drops of water; the choice of heat storage temperature in the material, can enhance the apparent temperature 3-5 degrees; the introduction of Japan's exclusive antibacterial green velvet. At the same time, we have tried some of the latest smart wearable down jackets, but we are still not very mature. Next, we will focus on research in this area, relying on innovation drive and integration, to achieve transformation and upgrading, and improve quality. Effective, moving to the middle and high end.

In the context of consumption upgrades, the apparel industry has shifted to the clothing service industry and the fashion industry. The service concepts and brands behind a piece of clothing have begun to become the focus. The future textile and garment industry is both a manufacturing industry and a high-tech industry, both a fashion industry and a service industry.

Textile and apparel companies have begun to pursue diversified development from "Internet +" to "channel +". Our industry enterprises must establish a rapid response supply chain system through intelligent and informatized production to improve the efficiency of the supply chain. By integrating channel resources, the channels will be flattened, and the transition from traditional wholesale to retail will be realized. At the same time, enterprises should be promoted. Platformization, guiding enterprises to transform from heavy assets to light assets, becoming resource integrators, not producers, has become a big platform for connecting suppliers and distributors, and fully improving resource utilization rate.

This year is the tough year for supply-side structural reforms. The provincial party committee and the provincial government have proposed to build a “strong, rich and high-profile” new Jiangsu, which is strong and economically strong, and the economy is strong, and the key is to be strong. All of our entrepreneurs should seize the opportunities brought about by the supply-side structural reforms, continue to give full play to the enthusiasm of entrepreneurship and innovation, work hard, strengthen the backbone, promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing, and revitalize the real economy. Make the due contribution.
