Chinese vertical knitwear manufacturing group Shenzhou International, based in the city of Ningbo, Zhejiang province, has revealed that revenues declined by 14.9% year on year for the six months ended June 30.

The company, a major supplier to global sports brands like Nike and adidas, instead brought in $1.6 billion (¥11.6 billion) for the entire first half.

Shenzhou cited pandemic-influenced weak consumer demand, destocking and lower-than-normal utilisation of its operational capacity as contributing factors.
