Affected by the global financial turmoil, stone exports are facing a severe situation. According to customs statistics, in the first quarter of 2009, Fujian Province exported 1.989 million tons of stone, down 19.5% from the same period in 2008 (the same below); valued at 480 million US dollars, an increase of 8.9%.
Main features of Fujian's stone exports in the first quarter of 2009 (1) General trade exports dominated. In the first quarter of 2009, Fujian's general trade in stone exports was 1.908 million tons, down 20.7%, accounting for 95.5% of the total stone exports in Fujian Province during the same period; valued at 410 million US dollars, up 7.6%.
(2) Mainly exported to Taiwan, the European Union and Japan. In the first quarter of 2009, Fujian Province exported 814,000 tons, 406,000 tons, and 256,000 tons of stone to Taiwan, the European Union, and Japan, respectively, down 5%, 12.4%, and 63.4%.
(3) The export of private enterprises occupies a dominant position. In the first quarter of 2009, private enterprises, foreign-invested enterprises, and state-owned enterprises exported 1.31 million tons, 420,000 tons, and 268,000 tons of stone, respectively, down 4.1%, 18.5%, and 55.4%.
(IV) The export tax rebate rate was raised, and the export growth of commodities was obvious, and the policy effect was remarkable. Since December 1, 2008, the country has increased the tax rebate rate for some stone exports from 5% to 9%. Due to this policy, the stone products with an increase in export tax rebate rate have risen against the trend. In the first quarter of 2009, export tax rebates were involved. The export of stone products with an increase rate was 1.129 million tons, an increase of 8%, accounting for 56.5% of the total stone exports of Fujian Province in the same period, valued at 460 million US dollars, an increase of 27.6%, accounting for 95.8% of the total value of stone exports in Fujian Province during the same period.
The main situation facing the export of stone (1) The international market situation is grim. Affected by the financial turmoil, the demand in the European and American markets has shrunk, stone exports have been blocked, and the current situation of crude oil prices and exchange rates fluctuating greatly has increased the risk of stone exports. However, because the production cycle of stone is about one year, the order-based production method makes the impact of the financial crisis on the stone industry have a certain lag. Some experts predict that the real winter of the Chinese stone industry will probably appear in large areas in 2009 and 2010, and the cycle may last for two years.
(2) The concentration of stone enterprises is not high. There are fewer enterprises on the scale of stone. In 2008, there were only 2 enterprises with more than 50 million US dollars in stone exports in Fujian Province. In the first quarter of 2009, there were only 3 enterprises with exports exceeding 10 million US dollars. Most enterprises are restricted by objective factors such as capital and scale. The scale of production is small and it is difficult to scale up. The overall competitiveness and ability to withstand risks need to be further improved.
(3) The traditional production efficiency is low. Some enterprises are generally lacking in technology R&D investment. There are technical equipment backwards. The traditional workshop-style production, high inventory, and low turnover rate also hinder the improvement of production efficiency, which has dragged down the pace of modern stone enterprises going abroad. In addition, the brand strategy is the most effective means of market competition, the lack of stone industry brands, but also give up a large market share.
In this regard, we recommend:
First, the current European and American markets are shrinking, while the emerging countries such as the oil exporting countries in the Middle East and Russia are in strong demand. It is recommended to transfer the stone export market to countries with strong market demand and fill the original market with new market increments. Reduce the amount.
The second is to integrate the industry, adjust the industrial structure, transform the heavy material production, the tendency of light product development, enhance the development of stone products and stone deep processing products, promote advanced processing equipment, and enhance the technical level of stone processing enterprises.
