Summary

The market will generally rise in the fourth week of 2024 (1.22-1.28), and goose down will increase significantly.

On January 26, the 2024 Spring Festival transportation officially started, but the transactions in the down market have not yet subsided.The clothing market ushered in a peak purchasing period before the Spring Festival. Coinciding with a strong cold wave heading south, the sales of down jackets continued to improve, which also indirectly made the down material trade in some areas more active.

This year, goose down has been sought after in the domestic market, and the price of goose down has soared for several consecutive weeks. At present, it seems that as the slaughterhouses have stopped harvesting and taking holidays, the breeding side has also reduced the overall slaughter volume, which has greatly reduced the supply of goose in the market, and the supply of goose down has been insufficient, which has further pushed up the price.

In 2023, the overall export situation of the down industry will be under pressure, with the export quantity and value of feather and down and down clothing both falling by more than 20%.However, the export of down bedding gradually stabilized and rebounded in the second half of the year. Especially with the empowerment of new foreign trade formats such as cross-border e-commerce and overseas warehouses, home textile companies will usher in new opportunities when going overseas.

The "ice and snow economy" releases vitality, and the textile sector generates "warmth" in the off-season

This winter, "cold" ice and snow continue to release "hot" vitality and are serving as a new growth point for consumption, driving "hot" multiple industrial chains. Among them, the consumption of winter clothing such as down jackets and ski suits has surged, injecting development vitality into the textile industry chain in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places during this winter.

"The recent booming ice and snow economy has boosted the polyester end industry chain.Clothing downstream generally reported that orders increased before the year, on the one hand, spring clothing orders, and on the other hand, ski clothing. Some factories said that due to the large number of orders, factory operations will continue until the year before." Analysts said.

Polyester fiber, also known as polyester. According to reports, consumer clothing categories such as down jackets and ski suits are end applications of polyester fiber, and the ice and snow economy has boosted demand for this product. Analysts said that since the end of November 2023, there has been an "explosion" in down jacket linings, and the prosperity of the lining industry has reached its peak in the past few years.

According to industry insiders, the reason behind the enthusiasm of the textile industry to follow "Erbin" is that the demand at the end of the industrial chain is "not weak in the off-season." In the long run, as domestic and foreign demand is expected to improve, the profitability of midstream and downstream products in the textile industry may improve.

The sales volume of Wuchuan down products increased by 50% year-on-year, and the price of goose down continued to rise.

With the arrival of multiple rounds of cold air, the country has started a quick-freezing mode, while the down industry is "heated up". As the "Hometown of Down in China" and the largest feather and down distribution center in the country, Wuchuan's sales of down products have surged, and the price of goose down has increased year-on-year.

"According to statistics, this winter, the sales volume of Wuchuan down products has increased by about 50% year-on-year." Wu Yu, operations director of CN-DOWN, said excitedly. Down Gold Network is a senior domestic down industry website, and the latest industry information it provides has become a benchmark for the world's down market.

"The price of goose down raw materials has been rising, by about 30%." Wu Yu analyzed, "In addition to the cold weather this year, it is also because consumers are more pursuing quality and tend to choose better quality down, especially goose down. "

Providing high-quality down is the "specialty" of Wuchuan's down industry. Wu Yu said: "Wuchuan mainly deals in the high-quality down raw material market, while the finished down products tend to be in the down home textile market, such as down quilts. "

The quality of down is directly proportional to the breeding time of ducks and geese. If the breeding time is longer, the feathers will be plumper, the quality of the down produced will be better, and the fluffiness of the down will be higher.

Chen Wenjian, president of the Wuchuan Down Association, said that the commonly used duck feathers in Wuchuan are those of Muscovy ducks. The breeding time of Muscovy ducks is generally 90 to 95 days, and the breeding time of local geese is also more than 90 days, which is the highest quality of duck and goose feathers. Quality has laid the foundation. "It is understood that the only large-scale Muscovy duck breeding is in western Guangdong. For example, the number of Muscovy ducks in Zhanjiang and Maoming has exceeded 100 million. "

Global supply chains are more damaged than at the beginning of the global COVID-19 epidemic

According to a latest report from the Danish "Sea Intelligence" consulting company, the weekly Red Sea shipping capacity index fell by 57% in December last year compared with the annual average, exceeding the 47% decline in March 2020 at the beginning of the new crown epidemic.

The report believes that frequent attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea have had a serious impact on the global supply chain, exceeding the initial impact of the COVID-19 epidemic.

The Red Sea has always been an important waterway connecting Asia, Europe and Africa. Shipping companies have changed routes, resulting in rising ocean shipping costs and weeks-long delays, disrupting the global logistics supply chain and affecting many industries.

According to the "Nihon Keizai Shimbun" report, on the routes connecting Europe, the United States and Asia, the transportation of about 47% of toys, 40% of home appliances and clothing may be affected by rising freight rates and delayed arrivals.

News situation

This week’s news is more positive than negative.

During the third week (1/15-1/21), the industry estimates that the average number of duck seedlings emerging is about 7.8-8.4 million birds per day, which is recovering rapidly compared with the previous week. In mid-December, the duck industry in the north was in a stagnation or parking period. During the corresponding period in late January, the number of meat ducks sold decreased accordingly, resulting in duck down being in short supply.

RCEP is about to usher in a new round of tariff reductions. At the same time, Japan, a key export market for down products, is expected to usher in an interest rate hike in April. As a result, the depreciation trend of the yen may not last long, which can promote the country's import business.

As the "throat" of international shipping, continued tension in the Red Sea has posed severe challenges to the global supply chain. In addition, it has indirectly impacted the supply chains in Europe and the United States, causing delays in product shipments and even forcing some factories to shut down. Currently, the impact of the Red Sea crisis is gradually emerging, including rising costs, supply cuts of raw materials, and extended delivery times.
