What Jihua does

State-owned textile and apparel conglomerate under a defense-industry group, making chemical fiber, fabric and garments.

Sells fabric and uniforms to government and military buyers through procurement contracts and also to commercial garment makers, so state purchasing is a steadier line than the competitive textile trade. Chemical fibre and fabric sales follow textile cycles.
