    vities of the US Cotton Association International in China, while African cotton comes into people's vision due to the grand opening of the China-Africa Cooperation Forum.

    US cotton has its advantage in price and quality, so it has won the favor of many textile enterprises.

    have entered China's cotton market. The market share of US cotton imports in China dropped to 45 percent from 50 percent in 2005-2006.

    Faced with this development trend and the rapid growth of China's cotton textile capacity, US cotton traders and their servant agency US Cotton Association International continue to launch offensi

    Perhaps this is not an exact saying, because in 2003, they already introduced US cotton logo into China’s mainland, aiming at creating US cotton brand and cultivating Chinese consumption habits to US cotton.

    From 2005 onwards, they bring their annual ‘Cott

    Now, in addition to offices in Hong Kong and Beijing, the US Cotton Association International has set up another office in Shanghai, to further expand cotton trade.

    Recently the US Cotton Association and China Cotton Association also

    signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation, with commitment to strengthen bilateral cooperation in the field of cotton.

    To allow more Chinese companies to understand US cotton, US Cotton Association International launches a Chinese websites. In addition, they also undertake a ‘Supply Chain Marketing Action’ project, whic

    Their activities indicate that the US cotton is pervasively penetrating into Chinese market.

    Regarding the offensive of US cotton, many industrial insiders are worried. They

    Since China is impossible to resist the US cotton, why not reflect on our own weakness, and learn the strongpoint from others?

    On the price side, the price of US cotton is lower 1

    00-2000 yuan /ton than China cotton. To cotton enterprises, this is the greatest attraction. Domestic textile industry has called on the connection with international market, but they still could not resist the charm of US cotton, if the price gap is not narrowed.

    Speaking of quality, different fibers have become the watershed be

    Of course, there are many deep-rooted reasons for the problems with price and quality, they should be gradually resolved, and also require a package of supporting measures.

    In comparison, the marketing methods of US cotton are easier for China to learn and use for reference.

    What would be the developing cost?
    How to tackle the risks encountered during combination product developmen

    In order to expand the influence of American cotton, in recent years, US cotton merchants often work with some domestic institutions to organize conference releasing fashion trends and to guide textile enterprises with techn

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel
    ical upgrading.

    In addition, the US has vigorously promoted US cotton logo, and assists textile enterprises, which have obtained US cotton logo, to promote their products and expand production.

    To visit customers and collect feedback is the after-sales service that many enterprises have adopted, but US cotton merchants pay great

    As to cotton purchase, in order to shorten the delivery time for Chinese enterprises and adapt to Chinese habits of seeing goods before buying, from the end of last year, the US changed its model

Now, for manufacturers, it is more convenient to

    As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

    Not only that, they also organize relevant training courses to teach enterprises how to buy US cotton and how to identify cotton quality. As one textile enterprise general manager said, "low priced products, coupled with good after-sales service really makes it very difficult to reje

    Such mature, systematic and thoughtful marketing means could not be caught up with by many advanced large-scale enterprises in China, not to mention local cotton industry. And there is something for Chinese cotton industry to consider and get certain inspiration from what the US Cotton Association International does in China
