Impact of local epidemic on foreign trade export

China's foreign trade has maintained a double-digit growth in the first two months of this year.

According to the data released by the General Administration of Customs on March 7, from January to February this year, China's total import and export value was 6.2 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.3%. Among them, the export was 3.47 trillion yuan, an increase of 13.6%; Imports reached 2.73 trillion yuan, an increase of 12.9%.

The structure of foreign trade has also been continuously optimized. The data show that the import and export of China's private enterprises have increased rapidly and the proportion has increased. In the first two months, the import and export of private enterprises reached 2.99 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.1%, accounting for 48.2% of China's total foreign trade, an increase of 1.1 percentage points over the same period last year.

The first financial reporter interviewed a number of foreign trade enterprises and learned that at present, most enterprises can hold orders for production for more than one month, but compared with last year, the demand for orders this year has decreased and the growth rate has slowed down. At the same time, in terms of production, due to the recent sporadic epidemic in many places in the country, the industrial chain and supply chain are also affected in the short term.

Since March this year, the frequency of local epidemics caused by imported epidemics has increased significantly, and the scope of the epidemic has been expanding. From March 1 to 14, the cumulative number of infected people reported in the local epidemic has exceeded 15000, affecting 28 provinces.

Taking Shenzhen as an example, the city's buses and subways were suspended; A series of prevention and control measures, such as closed management, were implemented in community communities, urban villages and industrial parks in the city from the 14th to the 20th. As a local enterprise, mayhead's production is directly affected. However, Wu Yuli said that according to the past habit, the company prepared a large inventory of accessories years ago, so it can cope with it up to now. The current impact will not be particularly large, but if the epidemic continues like this, the impact will increase.

At the same time, first finance and economics learned from the interviewed enterprises that there was a local epidemic in the upstream raw material purchase areas of some enterprises. Affected by the local epidemic prevention measures, most of them could not supply as scheduled, which had a certain impact on the production progress.

"We have some raw materials from Jiangsu, Hebei and other places. Recently, there has been a local epidemic, the prevention and control policies have been tightened, and our production progress has been affected. But generally speaking, we can produce normally, but some single products are affected. For example, Jiangsu is the gathering place of enterprises upstream of table tennis rackets, which has an impact on the whole industry, and all enterprises will produce goods Source tension. " Liu Zhou said that due to the relevant experience last year, it will increase the preparation of goods in some areas, which has little impact at present.
