Gold prices remain high in Shenzhen's Shuibei market, and gold continues to sell well
Affected by this, gold jewelry with both aesthetic appeal and value preservation continues to sell well. Shenzhen Shuibei, the largest gold and jewelry trading hub in China, has gathered many consumers from all over the country.
At 3 pm, a gold trading market in Shuibei, Shenzhen was bustling with people. The person in charge of the Golden Store, Zhang Yanxiang, has been standing in the store for four to five hours. Customers have been receiving one batch after another, and many products have been sold out.
Zhang Yanxiang, the person in charge of a gold store at a Shuibei store in Shenzhen, Guangdong: We receive more than 100 people a day. Now that the price of gold has risen, some people may feel that the price of gold is still going up, so they need to buy some quickly and save it for now.
Due to the continuous rise in gold prices, consumers are more inclined to purchase lightweight and heavy gold jewelry. Gold bracelets, gold rings, and gold necklaces are currently the best-selling products in various gold stalls.
The reporter learned that at the beginning of this year, the jewelry gold prices of domestic gold retail stores were about 530 yuan/gram. As of now, the gold prices of gold stores have reached around 600 yuan/gram. But in the Shuibei wholesale market, the price of gold jewelry is settled based on wholesale prices, and each gram can be cheaper by more than 100 yuan. Therefore, gold purchasing agents have become increasingly popular. There are purchasing agents who claim to earn tens of thousands of yuan on one trip.
The more expensive, the more you buy? The gold processing production line has fully opened up its firepower
In previous years, June and July were usually the off-season for gold consumption due to fewer traditional festivals. However, this year, driven by the rise in gold prices, the gold consumption side still has a relatively high heat. In the upstream production link, what is the current situation?
When the reporter saw Xia Wentao, a gold wholesaler, he was checking the products according to the customer's online orders. Recently, they introduced some dragon themed zodiac gold jewelry to downstream customers. Although it has not yet reached the peak booking period, the market feedback is still much better than he imagined.
Xia Wentao, Deputy General Manager of a gold wholesale enterprise in Shuibei, Shenzhen, Guangdong: Many jewelry retail brands started promoting their products for the next zodiac year in October, and the upstream market started earlier. In fact, our company's expectations for July this year have increased by 10% to 20% year-on-year.
After receiving the order, Xia Wentao issued a production task to the factory, and the person in charge of the gold processing plant, Zhou Guoqiang, quickly organized material preparation and processing. According to the production rhythm of previous years, the processing factory will gradually enter the peak of shipment from August, but this year, the factory entered a mass production state earlier.
Due to the gradual increase in orders, currently at the factory where Zhou Guoqiang is located, more than 300 workers have started work from 8:30am to 5:30pm. It is expected that by mid August, they will have to work overtime until at least 10pm to complete the orders on time.
The reporter learned from the Shenzhen Jewelry Association that currently in Shuibei, the production line operating rate of most gold processing plants has significantly increased.
Sun Li, Deputy General Manager of a Jewelry and Jewelry Co., Ltd. in Shenzhen, Guangdong: Compared to the strong performance in the first half of the year, gold prices may tend to stabilize. Judging from the overall domestic market environment, as gold prices are stabilizing, we also have confidence in the arrival of the peak sales season in the second half of the year.
