     Puning is a "National Textile Industry Base City and National Foreign Trade Transformation and Upgrading Base (Underwear)", serving as the local primary pillar industry and Jieyang's first hundred-billion-yuan industrial cluster. It is the largest and most comprehensive knitwear industrial belt in China's county-level regions. In 2025, the industry scale reached 143.1 billion yuan, with over 7,000 textile and apparel enterprises, connecting the entire chain from spinning, weaving, dyeing and finishing, accessories, pattern making, sewing, packaging, to trade logistics. Relying on four professional markets and the "one main and three auxiliary" industrial parks, it has formed a parallel model of spot market stalls, OEM/ODM branding, live-streaming e-commerce, and cross-border foreign trade, focusing on small orders and quick response. Most exports are declared through Shantou and Shenzhen ports, while local customs declaration and export volume are relatively small. The industry is dominated by small and medium-sized factories, with outstanding cost-effectiveness advantages, and is undergoing branding and smart manufacturing upgrades.
