Shoe Enterprises Use Labor Shortage To Bring Up The Price Of Spring And Summer Shoes.

With the spring breeze blowing, new spring shoes have been listed on the market. Summer sandals are also placed on the shoe counters, which have made a beautiful footmark.

However, the United States is beautiful. Many consumers find that the price of shoes this spring and summer is really not cheap. Some brands even have a single shoe price tag or even a thousand yuan, approaching the price of winter boots.

Labor shortage in shoe enterprises

The overall price is higher than last year

"I usually buy more brands such as BELLE, Staccato and Saturday. Last year's price of spring shoes is basically between 600~800 yuan, and I usually buy them at a discount at the mall, and the price of a pair of shoes is three hundred or four hundred yuan."

Labor shortage affects subsequent supply

It is reported that footwear costs include leather and other raw materials and labor costs.

Take Dongguan, the main producer of shoes, for example. Since the second half of last year, shoe factories in Dongguan have raised wages for workers, while the price of leather raw materials has almost doubled, plus the increase in logistics costs.

It is not only the price side effects that lead to the shortage of shoes, but Shen Bing, manager of the footwear department of Jiangnan Building, believes that it has also led to a reduction in the production of shoes and the supply of goods to a certain extent.
