After weathering the global financial crisis, Zhongshan City's apparel exports began to rebound in the spring of 2010. According to data released by the Zhongshan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, as of November 2010, the city had exported a total of 62,601 batches of garments and 918 million pieces (including cases and sets), with a value of $1.897 billion—marking a year-on-year increase of 10.8%. The growth rates for garment volume and value reached 24% and 16.8%, respectively, signaling a clear recovery in the industry.
According to the same statistics, nearly 700 garment export enterprises in Zhongshan are active in the European Union market. Among them, 36 companies have annual exports exceeding $10 million, while around 250 companies fall into the $1–$10 million range. Meanwhile, over half of the companies export less than $1 million annually. This highlights the dominance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the sector, with most relying on processing trade models.
The main types of clothing exported from Zhongshan include casual wear, denim, undergarments, wedding gowns, and baby clothes. In the post-crisis period, specialized industrial clusters emerged in towns such as Shaxi, Siu Lam, the Triangle, Dapeng, and Dayong. These areas developed regional characteristics and competitive advantages, drawing back merchants and boosting the overall garment export industry.
In 2010, the top five export markets for Zhongshan’s garments were the European Union, the United States, Hong Kong, Australia, and Japan, collectively accounting for over 80% of the city’s total garment exports. Notably, the EU surpassed Hong Kong to become the largest export destination, followed by the U.S. Hong Kong dropped to third place, while Australia replaced Japan as the fourth-largest market.
To support the industry's recovery, international buyers have raised their quality and safety standards. Especially in the infant clothing sector, the Zhongshan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau intensified its inspection efforts starting in 2010. Wang Yuxiang, head of the Chemical Spinning Section, noted that infant clothing was once not subject to strict inspections. However, after the second half of 2009, the bureau began testing the safety performance of ropes and small parts in baby clothes.
Many companies lack awareness of these new international standards, leading to frequent rejections due to non-compliance. Even when products are made according to merchant specifications, they often fail to meet national export requirements. As a result, returns and losses are common.
Wang Yuxiang emphasized that businesses must align with both international standards and merchant requirements, producing goods according to the highest possible standards to ensure smooth exports. This proactive approach is essential for maintaining competitiveness in the global market.
