At the just-concluded China International Small and Medium Enterprises Expo, there was a special booth— —The A10 modern textile and apparel booth in the Industrial Internet Exhibition Hall is eye-catching. Different from conventional booths, which are often a way for an organization to display its products and services, A10 uses more than 1,000 square meters and aims at “fashion industry, future ecology” to organize more than 30 upstream and downstream, spanning business and IT enterprises and institutions to jointly interpret the future prospects of the entire industry chain. This is guided by the Guangdong Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, supported by the Organizing Committee of the Small and Medium Enterprises Digital Transformation Forum, and organized by the Zhongshi Digital Economy Research Institute. From fashion new product development and design, material selection, pattern making, to how new products reach consumers through various channels and From service aggregation orders to make-to-order production lines and supply chains, all links are interconnected so that small and medium-sized enterprises can see what they see and understand what they can do at a glance.
The textile and apparel industry is a typical two-stage separation industry: one stage is The design and sales segment centered around design research and development and channel markets must be in first-tier cities to have relevant high-end talents, such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen in the Greater Bay Area , Hong Kong; the other part is that supply chains such as clothing production and materials must be in slightly remote areas, because the profits of these production links are getting thinner and thinner, and they cannot support the high costs of first-tier cities, and there are also needs for sewage discharge and other aspects. In this modern textile and clothing cluster exhibition, four major modules are displayed through 21 scenes, namely: 1. Design – new products; 2. Channels – gathering orders; 3. Manufacturing – sales and production; 4. Others ——Auxiliary. Try to tell: 1. Focusing on the comprehensive services of design and development, comprehensively improving the inefficiency of this link in the industry is a top priority that is rarely noticed; 2. Consumption is constantly seeking innovation and changes, and various channels meet the needs of various groups of people. The efficiency of order gathering is a fierce competition in the industry. A place of competition; 3. Urgent delivery for small orders, low price and good quality, the must-answer questions for industrial digitalization that the supply side cannot yet achieve but must do; 4. Waste and waste Textilesrecycling is a missing link in the circular economy, and is expected to be the first industry to be implemented in China, and a new model for talent training in modern industrial colleges that integrates industry and education. By classifying these scenes into two separate sections, we can clearly delineate the scope boundaries that should be included in the orderly transfer of textiles and clothing throughout the province, as well as the key points of mutual division of labor and cooperation. The fashion industry is the second largest polluter in the world. Textile and apparel is its main line. The industry is very densely populated with small and medium-sized enterprises and has been plagued by serious inventory backlogs. In the current economic situation where total demand is insufficient, products of the same quality are flooded with low prices and low quality. Mid- to high-end products of good quality are hard to find. Consumers are dissatisfied and practitioners have no confidence.
This textile and clothing industry exhibition strives to give solutions to problems. Showing the new development pattern of the industry: 1. Improve the efficiency of design services and promote new product development; 2. New products drive new orders; 3. Manufacturing must create a flexible and rapid delivery system for smaller orders, and the supply chain must be efficiently coordinated. In this way, it is expected to achieve zero inventory, green environmental protection will have immediate results, and will be the fastest carbon emission reduction measure in existence. Management collaboration will produce benefits, and the hidden costs of the industry will be greatly reduced. Corporate profits have improved significantly, specialties and new products have emerged, and the dual cycle has been strengthened.
The Guangdong Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology is promoting textile and clothing based on the provinceIndustrial Cluster Digital transformation “top-level design, overall planning”, through the optimization of the entire industry chain system structure, digital collaboration, support, and empowerment of small and medium-sized enterprises to join the innovation ecological chain system and burst out Create new vitality and promote Guangdong to rebuild a high quality textile and apparel industry.
