The Truth About China

 AsiaInspection Barometer - Q1 2013
Of the world’s goods now come from China



Source: http://news.thomasnet.com/IMT/2013/03/14/china-widens-lead-as-worlds-largest-manufacturer/
In 2012 their manufacturing output reached

    $2.9 Trillion USD

Source: http://news.thomasnet.com/IMT/2013/03/14/china-widens-lead-as-worlds-largest-manufacturer/
That’s…



   20% more                                            than the US ($2.43 Trillion)




Source: http://news.thomasnet.com/IMT/2013/03/14/china-widens-lead-as-worlds-largest-manufacturer/
If you were to fly that money
to the US in $100 bills you’d need




 45 Airbuses
There are talks of
manufacturing returning
  to the West, but…
US manufacturing
   output dropped
     in Jan 2013
                                                               -0.4%

Source: http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/g17/20130215/
US imports from
     Asia increased
      in Jan 2013
                                                                  +23%

Source: http://www.zepol.com/BLOG/post/2013/03/15/US-Customs-Trade-Data-February-2013-Import-Update.aspx
And the EU also saw
  a big decline in
manufacturing output
    in Jan 2013
                                                                      -1.7%

Source: http://www.tradingeconomics.com/euro-area/industrial-production
Western brands say that
   they want to bring
manufacturing "back home"
committed to invest                             US$50 billion
  in “Made in America” products over the next 10 years




Source: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/01/15/us-walmart-us-idUSBRE90E0MB20130115
But this only amounts to

   0.93%
   of their total sales
So can the West really
     compete?
China is predicted to be the world’s



            BIGGEST
                         economy by 2016


Source: http://www.oecd.org/eco/surveys/economicsurveyofchina2013.htm
but…


quality & safety
  can be hit and miss
16,000
                            diseased pigs
           were dumped in Shanghai’s
             drinking water in March


Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/mar/29/dead-pigs-china-water-supply
It’s hard to visualize that many pigs…


HHHH
    But if they were to line up, they’d cover

                28.8km
The scariest part is…


HHHH                                                 $



 Underground traders buy pigs that
have died from disease and sell them

Source: http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90882/8191519.html
There is a silver lining though…


   In Q1 2013 Inspections of Food and
      Food Packaging items surged

                                  +212%
Source: AsiaInspection Internal Figures
And overall inspections performed in
            China increased

                                          +27%
Source: AsiaInspection Internal Figures
But is it enough?
Factory Fires in Asia killed
               HUNDREDS
          in the past few months


Source: http://www.cleanclothes.org/resources/ccc/working-conditions/fatal-fashion
Usually because the windows were
   barred and people couldn’t escape




Source: http://www.cleanclothes.org/resources/ccc/working-conditions/fatal-fashion
“The only safeguard for workers and
   brands is to ensure business is
conducted only with factories that meet
     or exceed safety standards”
         Sebastien Breteau, CEO of AsiaInspection
Source: AsiaInspection Internal Figures



Manufacturing growth in Asia is booming
 despite these challenges and China is
       branching into new areas




  Industrial &        Food                 Body Care
Mechanical Items    Products                Products



+42%               +212%               +36%
The Truth about China?


   It’s going to be hard to catch…
