Monthly report of textile and garment industry: social zero growth rate slows down, waiting for consumption recovery

Investment suggestion: since March 2022, the national epidemic has blossomed in many places, and more strict sealing and control measures have been taken in many places. Offline consumption has been impacted to a certain extent, and the growth rate of total retail sales of social consumer goods has slowed down. At the same time, some regions have taken measures such as city closure, which has led to difficulties in express delivery and delivery, resulting in a sharp narrowing of the growth rate of total sales of wear online goods. 3. April was supposed to be the peak period for changing seasons to buy clothes, but the terminal consumption slowed down in the short term due to the impact of the epidemic. Referring to the recovery of consumption after the unsealing in the second quarter of 2020, we believe that consumer demand has only been suppressed in the short term and has not disappeared. We are optimistic about the recovery of consumption after the epidemic.
