In the first quarter, Sichuan's textile and garment exports increased significantly

According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in April, Sichuan's textile and apparel exports totaled 416 million U.S. dollars, an increase of 82.35% compared with the previous period. Among them, the export value of textiles was 133 million US dollars, an increase of 30.80% over the previous period; the value of apparel exports was 283 million US dollars, an increase of 123.66% over the previous period.

From January to April, the cumulative export volume of textiles and clothing in Sichuan totaled 1.173 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 105.72% year-on-year. Among them, textile exports totaled 392 million U.S. dollars, an increase of 20.34 percent year-on-year; apparel exports totaled 781 million U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 219.27%.

The rapid growth of textile and apparel exports created a more relaxed environment for Sichuan textile companies' business activities. It is understood that the major textile enterprises in Sichuan Province in March increased yarn and cloth orders; April yarn and cloth sales have reached the best of the past two years.

However, since May, the *** has continued to appreciate, foreign trade companies have been afraid to pick up, and Sichuan textile companies have gradually reduced their yarn and cloth orders. Recently, some textile companies have felt that it is difficult to balance production and sales, and business pressure is increasing.
