The World Capital of Cashmere: The Qinghe Cashmere Industrial Belt
The World Capital of Cashmere: The Qinghe Cashmere Industrial Belt
In Xingtai, Hebei Province, lies a remarkable northern county that, despite raising no sheep, firmly controls the lifeline of the global luxury cashmere raw material market. This is Qinghe County, acclaimed as both the "Cashmere Capital of China" and the "World Capital of Cashmere." Over the past four decades, Qinghe has evolved from humble roadside markets into a massive 100-billion-level industrial cluster. Today, it processes and distributes 8,000 tons of goat cashmere and over 50,000 tons of sheep wool annually, accounting for 60% and 90% of China's total output, respectively. Nearly 50% of the world's cashmere raw materials are traded right here.
Industrial Scale & Full-Chain Advantages: A Super Cluster "Built from Scratch"
The Qinghe cashmere industry has completely moved beyond simple raw material processing. It has established a comprehensive industrial chain covering raw cashmere procurement, dehairing, spinning, knitting, weaving, garment manufacturing, and terminal sales.

To break the dilemma of "selling soft gold at cabbage prices," Qinghe enterprises have taken the stage at Milan Fashion Week for four consecutive years since 2023. In January 2026, Qinghe Cashmere held its debut showcase at the Xinhua News Agency complex, presenting thousands of original design products. Currently, Qinghe boasts thousands of registered brand trademarks. The "Qinghe Cashmere" mark has been officially recognized as a National Geographical Indication Trademark and has been included in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's list of Top 100 Key Cultivated Textile and Apparel Brands.
