In the first three quarters of this year, the international situation was complex and volatile, the growth momentum of the world economy and global trade was weakened, and China's foreign trade development was faced with many pressures. However, under the influence of China's continued expansion of high-level opening up and the intensive introduction of a series of policies and measures to stabilize foreign trade, the foreign trade industry withstood the pressure, faced difficulties, and firmly walked on the road of "maintaining stability and improving quality".

Small, medium and micro international trade enterprises are an important part of China's foreign trade industry. In the process of constantly seeking innovation and development, some of them insist on deepening and down-to-earth business, focusing on improving their own advantages; Some actively expand new markets and seek new growth points when demand slows down; Others are still arrogant and impetuous when standing in the industrial wind tunnel, and constantly temper their core competitiveness. In a special period, they realized turning "danger" into "opportunity" with the attitude of seeking progress while maintaining stability.

An enterprise personnel engaged in the export of household packaging materials in the Pearl River Delta region said: "In the first half of this year, the situation of shipping shortage and" one container is hard to find "has improved, and shipping prices have fallen back, enabling us to better control costs. The company's customers are mainly concentrated in North America. On the whole, the market performance in this region this year was within our expectations. "

"Although the current international trade situation is unstable and the epidemic situation is repeated, we have tried to use overseas social media to expand new customers. From the results of the previous three quarters, the company has achieved its goals well." The above enterprise personnel said so.

The intensification of exchange rate fluctuations further triggered a slowdown in demand, which was an unavoidable topic for international trade exports in the first three quarters. An enterprise staff engaged in 3C digital/household appliances export in the Pearl River Delta region said: "Our export destinations are mainly Europe and North America. This year, due to the problems of international situation and exchange rate fluctuations, orders from Europe have decreased, and customers in North America have less incentive to place orders. Therefore, in addition to the European and American markets, we are also actively exploring emerging markets such as Southeast Asia. Next, we will further improve product competitiveness, optimize operational efficiency, and continue to improve our viability in the complex external environment."

Since September this year, the order growth of electric heating equipment exported to Europe has become a new growth point in the international trade industry. A person in charge of an enterprise from the northwest region engaged in the export of raw materials for electric heating equipment told the reporter that as the northern hemisphere entered winter, the weather became cooler, and people's demand for heating products was increasing. The orders for electric heating equipment received by the company continued to grow, which brought them new opportunities to develop export business. The enterprise believes that "it is normal for the market to change, even in the wind, we should not be arrogant and impetuous, and recognize our own capabilities and advantages. I believe that the status of Made in China and China's' World Factory 'is very stable. As long as we do a good job in our industry, maintain good customers, and constantly improve the core competitiveness of our products, we will be able to survive in the changing environment."

In the first three quarters of this year, the rapid growth of automobile exports was a highlight of China's foreign trade exports. An enterprise engaged in the export of auto parts in the Pearl River Delta found its own opportunities and believed that the future development of the auto parts industry is also worth looking forward to

"Only by continuously deepening business and improving competitiveness, can we find certainty in uncertainty." This is the common aspiration of many small, medium and micro foreign trade enterprises in the first three quarters of this year. Deng Guobiao, the founder and CEO of XTransfer, believes that in the face of changes in the external environment, small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises should actively explore new methods, develop new channels, expand new customers, and constantly create development space to drive the steady growth of China's international trade exports.
