summary
The market remained stable this week.
Recently, white duck down has maintained a weak price trend, while goose down and gray duck down have shown a slight upward trend. It seems that the market environment has improved, but due to the hot weather, the amount of down in the raw material has decreased, making it more difficult and costly for down enterprises to process. In addition, under tight financial conditions, they can only sell products at low prices.
Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan provinces and cities have experienced large-scale heatwaves, with many places experiencing the highest temperatures in history. In the coming days, the high temperature range in the north will continue to expand. Affected by this, there are predictions within the duck industry that the production of white feather meat ducks will decrease by about 20% in July.
In May of this year, the export of down feathers and their products remained weak, especially down feathers, which were slightly better than 2020, which was affected by the epidemic. This reflects the slowdown of orders for European and American brands and the decline of textile industry in Southeast Asian countries. Fortunately, the export of Down jacket in China is kept in line.

It can be seen from the data that the export of Down jacket has gone out of the off-season, but the export volume has dropped significantly compared with last year. One major reason is that the base for the same period last year was relatively high. If compared horizontally for nearly 9 years, the export situation in May this year is considered normal.
At the same time, the export proportion of cotton Down jacket has decreased significantly.
In terms of imports, in May 2023, a total of 199000 pieces of down garments were imported, an increase of 30% month on month; The import amount was 271 million yuan, an increase of 121.6% compared to the previous month.
Quang Viet (Guangyue), a Down jacket foundry, held a shareholders' meeting on the 15th and completed the re-election of directors (including independent directors). After the re election, the new board of directors also elected a new chairman to be replaced by Wu Chaobi on the 15th, and Tang Xiangmei, the vice president of business, was promoted to the position of general manager, effective from July 1st.
Regarding the outlook on the economy, Wu Chaobi expressed "caution with a touch of optimism". Based on the orders in hand, although the base period was relatively high in the second half of last year, June, July, and August entered the traditional peak shipping season, and production and delivery looked good, with only a slight decrease compared to the same period last year.
Wu Chaobi pointed out that this year is the first year for Lululemon to officially place orders, and the order volume will not be too large. It is estimated that the entire year will be around 3 to 4 million US dollars, but the order volume is expected to explode significantly next year. Another outdoor brand customer is expanding their Gore Tex product line and will also ship in the second half of next year.
He believes that from the perspective of outdoor brands, inventory is currently moving towards health, and it is expected that orders placed next year will grow. As for sports products, continuous observation is needed, and the overall order status should be clarified by the end of September.
There are now reports of explosive orders coming out of cloth for filling down. It is understood that the arrival of this wave of market not only led to a significant increase in sales of cloth for filling down, but also sparked a wave of price increases for some enterprises.
Cloth for filling down is the lining of Down jacket, cotton padded clothes and other autumn and winter clothing, and is an important product in the autumn and winter textile market. As a typical "watch the weather eat" product, the colder the weather, the greater the sales volume of cloth for filling down.
According to relevant sources, orders for Down jacket of all major brands have become unbearable. If we do not arrange production, we may miss the opportunity to sell in the future. Some people even suggest that if the autumn and winter clothing category has not been laid out yet, e-commerce platforms from September to October may fall into a situation of no stock available for sale.
Although it is still unknown whether this winter will usher in a cold winter, the demand for basic Down jacket will not disappear. From the sales data, the sales volume of these products is also extremely large.
