Chinese clothing manufacturers gain foothold on European soil with their own factories

Chinese textile company Shanghai Jingqingrong Garment, which supplies clothing for multinational fashion chains such as Japan's Uniqlo or Sweden's H&M and COS, will open its first textile factory outside China, in Catalonia. This is the result of an investment project by the textile company that has received the support of the Catalan government. It is a recent example of the trend for Chinese garment and textile manufacturers to locate more within Europe.
