2006-8-17
In the first half of 2006, textile exports to Japan earned Yen 1194.6 billion, recording a rise of 14.6 percent.
Nearly 90 percent of Japan's clothing import is from China, as labour and transportation cost is low while the delivery is quick.
As the labour cost in China is rising many Japanese clothing units are shifting to other cheaper Asian countries like Vietnam and Indonesia.
At the same time, Japanese clothing brands are rapidly entering Chinese market.
Japan Sojitsu company will sell Mc Gregor brand of clothing via their Chinese agent, Nichimen Infinity in next year.
Japan Onwar Kashiyama company has 84 shops in China, by 2007, they will have 110 shops.
