Cuba Shoe Factory Has Good Prospects And Leather Raw Materials Are Mainly Imported.

Combell is the only shoe factory in Cuba.

The company said that if the supply of leather is better this year, it will increase production by more than 100%.

In 2014, Combell produced about 2500000 pairs.

Compared with the volume of shoes produced by previous companies, Cuba has commented that the total is somewhat ironic.

Combell's production network was made up of 70 factories, but because of the shortage of raw materials and machine aging, it had to close about 50.

In addition, laid-off workers set up their own independence.

And shoe repair business.

At present, the number of Combell employees is no more than 3000.

In August 2014, the Cuban government provided financial support for the shoe industry, allowing it to import leather and increase production.

Combell's assistant director OdalysCollera recently commented on the media that everything has changed since last year, and investment has been rewarded.

Our work is stable, raw material supply is adequate, and workers are working hard.

At the beginning of this year, we finished the leather purchased in 2014, but the raw materials for leather purchased in 2015 also arrived one after another.

In addition, we can also buy some leather from Cuba's tanneries.

In 2015, Combell planned to produce 5 million 400 thousand pairs of shoes, including boots made for the country's security forces and ballet flat shoes and student shoes for children.

Collera is confident that Combell will accomplish its goals.

She explained that the tanneries in Cuba could not meet the needs of Combell, so they imported.

Become necessary.

She also said that the company had no export plan in 2015, but it may change in 2016, and it is also the direction for Combell to enter.
