Currently, our city is unswervingly following the path of “building a city through industry and strengthening the city through industry” and building an industrial layout of “three new, two special and one major”. As one of the city’s most distinctive and advantageous pillar industries, textile and apparel departments, including the city’s commerce, industry and information technology departments, work closely together to build a development platform while promoting the preparations for the first China·Chaoshan International Textile and Apparel Expo. Promote the reconstruction of the industrial chain, protect the high-quality development of the textile and apparel industry, and strive to create an industrial cluster exceeding 200 billion yuan in the next five years.
Professional exhibitions are an important driving force for industrial economic development. In view of the overall situation of the prevention and control of the new coronavirus epidemic in the country, the first “China·Chaoshan” was originally scheduled to be held at Shantou Chaoshan Expo Center from April 16th to 18th. The “International Textile and Clothing Expo” has been postponed for one month. Currently, various preparations are being carried out in an orderly manner. During the preparation process, the Municipal Commerce Bureau set up a special work team to establish an online contact mechanism with the Municipal Textile and Garment Industry Association to promptly track and resolve the issues encountered by the Textile Association during the preparations for the expo, such as venues, surrounding environment transformation, hotel and catering services, electricity, and transportation. , funding and other difficulties and problems to ensure the smooth holding of the expo.

The textile and garment industry is one of the city’s most distinctive and advantageous pillar industries. In 2021, it will account for more than one-third of the city’s total industrial output value above designated size. Shantou is also China’s largest underwear production base, accounting for 45% of the country’s output and more than 75% of its famous brand products. Shantou’s path of “building a city through industry and strengthening it through industry” cannot be achieved without the support of the textile and garment industry. In December last year, driven by the high-level promotion of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, our city established the Textile and Garment Industry Association to further promote the collective development of Shantou textile and garment enterprises, create very favorable conditions and build an important development platform to promote cooperation and exchanges within and outside the industry. This year, our city has made every effort to promote the construction of the “four major projects” of a global textile procurement center, a textile industrial park, an exhibition center, and a textile and garment industry headquarters building to promote the clustered, high-end, and standardized development of the textile and garment industry.
