In spite of many difficulties, Vietnam's textile industry remained stable and fast growing in 2012, and continued to become the leading export industry in the country in the year of P.

The total export volume of clothing, textiles and yarns was 17 billion 200 million US dollars, an increase of 8.5% over the same period last year.

Clothing and textiles exports amounted to 15 billion 800 million US dollars, an increase of 12%.

In the export volume of $17 billion 200 million, Vietnam imported only $8 billion 800 million of raw materials, and the remaining 50% were about a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_f.asp" > excipients < /a > for domestic production.

This shows that Vietnam's clothing and textile industry's prestige and competitiveness in the international market are increasing.

< /p >

P Vietnam Vietnam Textile Association (Vitas) said Vietnam has been the world's top ten exporter of garment textiles, and the textile industry is also a major industry in Vietnam's export earnings, making an important contribution to increasing national revenue.

Another major success of Vietnam's textile industry is to provide employment opportunities for 2 million 200 thousand people across the country. The per capita monthly income is nearly 5 million.

< p > domestic market, < a href= "http://pop.sjfzxm.com/popimg/fz/index.aspx" > dress < /a > textile industry has become Vietnam's largest and the scope of the economic sector, a total of 4000 enterprises, with a turnover of US $20 billion, equivalent to 15% of GDP, and also an export leading industry, accounting for 18% of total exports.

Vietnam has become the world's top five exporter of clothing and textiles.

< /p >

Up to now, Vietnam's clothing and textiles have been in 180 countries and regions all over the world, and have conquered the picky markets of the United States, Europe, Japan and South Korea in the P.

Vietnam's largest export market for clothing and textiles is the United States, Europe and Japan.

In the first 11 months of 2012, Vietnam exported $6 billion 800 million of clothing and textiles to the United States, accounting for 49.5% of the total exports over the same period, and exported 1 billion 790 million dollars to Japan, an increase of 16.8% over the same period last year. South Korea has become an emerging market for export of garment and textile products, with great potential and strong consumption capacity. Meanwhile, exports reached 1 billion US dollars, up 20.9% over the same period last year.

The accession to the WTO and the signing of the free trade agreement (P), the elimination of trade barriers such as quota restrictions in the United States and other countries, the equal tariff among member countries, and more opportunities to own and use advanced technology, information, services and management experience create great opportunities for the development of Vietnamese garment textiles.

< p > < strong > difficulties facing < /strong > < /p >

< p > although Vietnam's textile industry has made some achievements, its net added value is not high.

Clothing and textiles exports are US $15 billion 90 million, but we import nearly US $11 billion.

The net added value is only about $4 billion 90 million.

At the same time, it also faces the following difficulties and limitations: < /p >

< p > one is the lack of raw and auxiliary materials.

In 2012, textile enterprises continued to face huge restrictions on raw materials and excipients.

Most of the raw materials needed for production still rely on imports.

Domestic raw materials production can only meet the textile industry's 30% production demand, so the net added value of the industry is difficult to improve.

Although self productivity increased by 3-5 percentage points per year, it reached 49% in 2012, but still far below India's 90% and China's 95%.

< /p >

< p > two is the high interest rate of bank loans and the difficulty of financing.

In 2012, Vietnamese enterprises had to bear high interest rates of up to 12%-15%, resulting in a decline in competitiveness and high cost.

The cost of investment for international textile enterprises is only 3% - 4%.

Compared with Vietnamese enterprises, they have greater advantages in terms of cost.

It can be said that compared with other enterprises in 2012, Vietnam textile enterprises' biggest shortcoming is high cost and difficult financing.

< /p >

< p > three is the increase in production input.

At present, the price of textile sales has not risen, but the expenditure has increased, and there is a trend of continuous growth.

Production expenses such as steam, oil, electricity and manpower increased. Social insurance and medical insurance increased.

Due to increased investment and Vietnam no longer enjoy the most favored nation standard, the partners began to pfer orders to Kampuchea and Burma to enjoy the preferential treatment.

At present, the textiles produced in Kampuchea can enjoy tariff free treatment all over the world.

This is also the most important reason for importers to pfer orders from Vietnam to other countries.

Four, labor productivity is low.

Although textile enterprises have begun to pay attention to labor productivity quality management, compared with traditional methods, they have achieved initial success.

But labor productivity is still lower than that of some countries and regions in the region, which is only equivalent to 1/3 in Hongkong, 1/4 in China and 1/8 in Korea.

This will have a greater impact on cost and reduce product competitiveness.
