The Zhitong Finance App learned that according to the latest data released by the General Administration of Customs on October 14, textile and garment exports fell 3.8% year on year and 11.3% month on month in September due to adverse factors such as weak demand in overseas markets, the decline in global manufacturing sentiment, and the appreciation of the RMB, according to the latest data released by the General Administration of Customs on October 14. Among them, textile exports fell 2.1% and clothing exports fell 5.1%.
In the first three quarters of this year, China's textile and garment exports totaled 222.41 billion US dollars, an increase of 0.5% over the previous year. Among them, textile exports were 104.3 billion US dollars, an increase of 2.9%, and clothing exports were 118.11 billion US dollars, a decrease of 1.6%. Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, adverse factors such as the sustainability of the recovery in overseas demand, trade protectionism, and geopolitics will continue. As the “base effect” weakens further, China's textile and garment export growth will still face major challenges.
