During this period, the company's superior authorities, organizational structure and corporate name have undergone many changes. Its nature is a management enterprise under the planned economic system, and its main function is to coordinate and manage the silk industry authorized by the state.

In 1946, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the former Kuomintang government established the China Silk Company in Shanghai, which was responsible for the national silk production and sales, and managed the affiliated silkworm research institute, experimental nursery, silkworm breeding farm and silk factory.

In May 1949, after the liberation of Shanghai, the then East China Military and Administrative Committee took over the China Silk Company.

In August 1952, China Silk Company came under the direct leadership of the Ministry of Foreign Trade.

In October 1953, China Silk Company was renamed "China Silk Company" and moved from Shanghai to the capital Beijing to take charge of the national cocoon and silk purchase, sale, import and export business.

Based on the silk import and export business and cocoon purchase work that were placed under the Ministry of Economy and Trade, the Ministry of Economy and Trade decided to establish the China Silk Import and Export Corporation to undertake various management and business operations of silk purchase and export nationwide. It was officially established in January 1987.

1992 to 1999.

As the country transitions from a planned economic system to a socialist market economic system, the company has also transformed from a management enterprise to an operation enterprise.

While managing the silk industry, the company regards the development of self-operated business as its central task and has successively established multiple secondary operating companies. Its overseas enterprises have also shifted their focus to developing self-operated business.

At this stage, the company's self-operated business has achieved considerable development.

From 1988 to 1999, silk and silk fabrics were included in the country's 16 particularly important export commodities, and unified and joint management was implemented.

The joint venture has 32 members across the country, including silk enterprises at major import and export ports, and jointly undertakes the export tasks of silk and gray silk across the country.

In early 1999, China National Silk Import and Export Corporation was decoupled from the former Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and placed under the leadership of the Central Enterprise Working Committee.

Since 2000, the company has transformed into a market competition entity that operates independently and is responsible for its own profits and losses.

The company no longer assumes management functions in the silk industry, but still undertakes some tasks assigned by the government.

In 2003, the company came under the supervision of the State-owned Enterprise Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council.
