Hubei textile industry to undertake: a well-prepared industrial upgrading

Hubei is becoming a new highland for the transfer of textile industry with high spirit. On March 11, 2025, Hubei Province held a grand textile and garment industry transfer and investment docking activity at the National Convention and Exhibition Center (Shanghai). Behind this activity is Hubei's ambition for the in-depth layout of the textile industry.

Hubei Province organized 95 enterprises from 14 cities and states in the province to make a group appearance. Hubei Exhibition Hall, with a large booth area of 1727 square meters, has become the largest unit exhibition area in the exhibition. What is more remarkable is that the exhibitors cover the whole industry chain of yarn, fiber, fabric, home textile, clothing and other products, and the whole variety of products, so that people see the rich industry of Hubei textile.

Liu Ting, the head of Huangmei County in Huanggang City, mentioned in the promotion that the local industrial standard land of 84,600 to 94,600 yuan per mu, and the project with a solid investment of 500 million yuan can also be "one matter one discussion". In terms of employment, there are more than 20,000 skilled textile workers in the county. In terms of energy use cost, low and medium pressure steam 180-210 yuan/ton, sewage treatment 4.87 yuan/ton, the comprehensive cost is lower than the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta.

Hubei is making every effort to build the "11223N" modern textile industry layout, which aims to create the main bearing area of the national textile and garment industry transfer. From the perspective of scientific and technological innovation strength, universities represented by Wuhan Textile University have established 27 provincial, municipal and industry-level key laboratories and research centers, providing strong technical support and talent guarantee for the industry.

Big trends from a national perspective

Hubei's active undertaking is only a microcosm in the textile industry's capacity transfer tide. From a nationwide perspective, the transfer of textile industry capacity is showing a multidimensional profound change. With the rising cost of traditional textile industry bases such as the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta, the transfer of industry to inland areas has become inevitable. Inland areas with lower labor costs, land costs and a series of preferential policies, become a hot land to undertake industrial transfer. Hubei, Henan, Sichuan and other provinces are gradually emerging in the textile industry.

In the process of industrial transfer, intelligent manufacturing has become a key word. Enterprises are no longer satisfied with simple capacity expansion, but through the introduction of advanced intelligent manufacturing technology to improve production efficiency and optimize product quality. For example, some enterprises in the construction of new plants, a large number of automated production lines and intelligent warehousing systems, greatly reducing the reliance on labor, while improving the flexibility and precision of production.

The transfer of modern textile industry is no longer the isolated behavior of a single enterprise, but the collaborative transfer of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. This cluster development mode can form a complete industrial ecology, reduce the procurement cost and logistics cost of enterprises, and improve the competitiveness of the entire industrial chain. Hubei's "11223N" layout is a typical manifestation of this cluster development model.
