Watching foreign businessmen bargaining with the owners of shoe enterprises, Huang Fuhao, who was slightly tired, smiled.

In September 26th, the 2011 Sixth China Women's shoes capital international sourcing Festival and Cultural Tourism Festival opened in Chengdu. As the largest leather and leather goods trading center in the western region, Wuhou leather city also opened in the same period.

The famous footwear industry institutions from nearly 10 countries and regions in Italy, Russia, France and Germany participated in the event.

"Export dependent women's shoes are under great pressure at the time of the rapid decline of European and American economies."

Huang Fuhao said that shoes will change the traditional mode in the predicament, with the main theme of Wuhou direct shoe city, Wuhou Leather City, shoe culture hall, shoes culture theme park, and so on, to create the Western super large one-stop shoes and leather products trade and fashion center, so as to realize the expansion of the leather industry and the whole industry chain, and to radiate the whole western region's domestic market.

Wuhou Leather City: new industrial coordinates

According to statistics released recently by Chengdu customs, Sichuan garment, 1~5 clothing,

Sichuan shoe enterprises are unable to find a more direct export channel. They rely on traditional port middlemen for a long time to take the border trade and lack their own solid customer resources.

A shoemaking boss thinks that the current channel decides everything. If we can get through the sales channels, we can get higher profits directly through establishing a sales terminal in foreign countries.

"But the key lies in the continued decline in foreign purchasing power, and how can we make greater efforts in the domestic market, so that enterprises can survive."

The person in charge said.

The opening of Wuhou leather city with an area of 73 thousand square meters is the effort of Sichuan footwear industry, and it brings new hope and opportunity for the entire leather industry.

"We look at the comprehensive competitiveness of the Chengdu market."

Gao Qinli, chairman of Guangdong leather goods and bags Circulation Association, and chairman of Guangzhou Yefa Property Management Co., Ltd., commented.

In fact, with the expansion of domestic demand and industrial readjustment in the past two years, the traditional leather industry bases such as Guangdong, Fujian and Wenzhou also have the need to pfer to the mainland.

Unlike the "first factory and then city" of Chengdu footwear industry, Wuhou leather city will form a mode of "first market and then drive the industry". By building a professional market such as Wuhou Leather City, first, the establishment of a sales platform can solve many worries of factories, promote the development of Sichuan local leather enterprises, and at the same time, attract foreign and overseas manufacturers to enter Chengdu to realize the role of industrial undertaking.

Huang Fuhao said that based on the footwear industry and relying on the footwear industry as a platform, a new bright spot of leather industry based on women's shoes should be cultivated. Through the construction of Wuhou Leather City, Sichuan leather industry resources should be integrated to promote the upgrading of leather industry in Sichuan Province, and the expansion of the leather industry and the construction of the whole industry chain can be realized.

At the same time, Chengdu has adjusted the shoemaking industry to "shoemaking and luggage and leather goods industry", which has been listed as one of the key industries in the future development.

The plan puts forward that "we will give full play to the regional brand effect of" China Women's shoes capital "and create a regional headquarters economy for footwear industry.

It is estimated that by 2012, Chengdu's luggage and leather goods and leather clothing industry will achieve an industrial added value of 2 billion yuan, with a main business income of 5 billion yuan.

"We hope to get rid of the dependence on exports in Europe and the United States."

A shoe business owner told reporters that with the decline of European and American economies, women's consumption has also shrunk. Therefore, we must try to intervene in e-commerce and take the two lines at home and abroad instead of the traditional "OEM" mode, which has neither brand nor core competitiveness.

Industrial chain: upgrading comprehensively

In this regard, on the Industrial Development Forum held in the procurement Festival, the relevant experts suggested that the footwear industry in Sichuan has the advantage of manufacturing base. If we integrate "production, learning, research and marketing", we will surely lead the Chinese footwear industry to flourish in the future.
