Houjie Is The Center Of A Shoe Industry.

The closest reporter to the global footwear market needs: why is Dongguan so important in the global layout of the footwear industry in Taiwan? Lin Zhaojie (hereinafter referred to as "Lin"): if we want to operate the mainland market, there is nothing to worry about by our own innovation, but if we design shoes for European and American countries, we will have to go through long-term training, so Taiwanese businessmen have to go deep into the mainland market. Dongguan is the center of the Pearl River Delta, the forefront of China's footwear industry, and the first place for many Taiwanese businessmen to enter the mainland.

Especially in Houjie, where there is a complete development platform, including the purchase of raw materials.

Therefore, I can say with certainty that Houjie is the center of shoe industry in Dongguan.

Ji: why do you think Houjie is the center of a shoe industry? Lin Lin: in the current world shoe industry base, India imports 80% of its shoes from China, and Indonesia must rely on China's shoe making equipment.

The early Chinese footwear industry was developed by Taiwan shoe makers to open factories in mainland China. Therefore, thick street can become the center of the shoe industry in the world because it is closest to the market demand of the global footwear industry.

It is suitable for the development of headquarters economy and R & D platform. Remember: the current rumors that Taiwanese footwear industry may be pferred to Southeast Asia. What do you think of this statement? Lin Lin: Taiwan came to mainland China 15 or 16 years ago because of the rising labor cost and the rapid appreciation of Taiwan dollar.

The problems facing the mainland are almost the same as those in Taiwan 16 years ago.

With the appreciation of the renminbi, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the renminbi may rise to 1:6 one day, and it will be cheaper to import from abroad than to make shoes on the mainland.

From this point of view, the future Chinese market must turn into the middle and high price shoe production base, and the cheap shoes must be pferred from the mainland production.

If Taiwanese businessmen are ready to actively pform into domestic market, they must improve their quality, because the high and middle price can survive in the market.

Although Taiwan businessmen specializes in making foreign trade shoes, the first condition for making shoes is that which country has a large population and good conditions, and can produce cheap shoes. It seems that the whole world is looking at China, which can do well and cheap shoes. But 16 years passed quickly, we must find satisfactory places.

How to lower the cost of Southeast Asia is a good place to attract Taiwanese investment.

Ji: by the impact of foreign economy, export is frustrated, how will Taiwan footwear manufacturers go next? Lin Lin: China's footwear exports account for 80% of the world's shoes, production environment is not a problem, technology has reached world-class standards, but the market environment is changing, shoe industry must also keep up with market changes.

With the change of various factors, from the cost point of view, Houjie is no longer the most suitable place for shoe factories. It is suitable for developing headquarters economy and R & D platform.

For example, Italians, like Italians, have been concentrating on developing their footwear designs, but production is still in China and the surrounding countries.

Therefore, Taiwanese businessmen must consider from the cost point of view. If we continue to engage in footwear trade, we can take into account India and Indonesia. The population of India will reach 1 billion 300 million at the present rate of growth. At that time, they have sufficient conditions to make cheap shoes, and Indonesia has a population of more than 200 million.
