In the first half of March this year, Brazil's footwear exports totaled 31 million 670 thousand pairs with a total value of US $241 million.

Despite the recovery in exports in February and March, the total in the first quarter was 12% lower than the same period last year.

In the first 3 months of 2015, the total export market of Brazil leather industry totaled US $255 million, up 1% from the same period last year.

Heitor Klein, executive director of footwear export association, pointed out that the strong US dollar did not affect exports, which brought a better form of anticipation for the second half of this year.

"Export recovery is the result of the efforts of the industry to tap the international market, as well as a sign of the recovery of the world economy, not attributable to the appreciation of the dollar, because

The recovery may be more obvious in May or July.

He said.

The United States is the main destination for the footwear industry in Brazil.

In the first quarter of this year, the United States bought 3 million 160 thousand pairs of shoes, paying 41 million 530 thousand US dollars, down 5.3% compared with the same period last year.

Brazil shoes export ranked second, the total consumption of $16 million 860 thousand to buy Brazil shoes, down 12.2% compared to the same period.

Klein believes that the decision of WTO recently to eliminate illegal import barriers among neighboring countries has had a positive impact on the export of Argentina footwear to Brazil.

"Our problem in Argentina is not that demand is weak, but that protectionism should be eliminated."

He thought.

Africa, with its rich natural resources and potential for development, is increasingly becoming a hot spot for international investment.

Huajian group is one of Dongguan's largest investment projects in Africa. In May 2014, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Prime Minister of Ethiopia, Haier, jointly signed the Huajian group's industrial park project in Ethiopia. This project is one of the "representative works" of China's traditional manufacturing industry heading for Africa.

Ethiopia - China Dongguan Huajian international light industrial park will lay a foundation for building a high-end platform for cooperation between Dongguan and Africa, and promote more Dongguan enterprises to invest in Africa and Africa.

Its foundation marks the grand launch of the Ethiopia China Dongguan Huajian International Light Industrial Park, the international industrial aircraft carrier. It also marks the Ethiopia - China Dongguan Huajian International Light Industrial Park, which has become an investment priority for overseas and domestic enterprises.

At present, the "one belt and one way" is not only an important strategy for China to build a new pattern of all-round opening up in the new era, but also provides an excellent opportunity for Chinese enterprises to "go out" and expand the new space for economic development.

In this year's national "two sessions", the proposal submitted by Zhang Huarong, member of the National Committee of CPPCC, standing committee of the National Federation of industry and commerce, chairman of Huajian group, chairman of the world footwear base, and "godfather of Chinese women's shoes", is concerned about the topic of "one belt and one road".

Zhang Huarong believes that the future labor-intensive processing industry will gradually lose its competitive edge, so we must "go out".

The labor intensive industrial chain of Chinese enterprises should be pferred overseas, leaving the headquarters of enterprises, leaving both ends, and the domestic industry should make brand, marketing and development.

In the country's advocacy of "going global", Ethiopia Dongguan China Huajian international light industrial park will meet a new development and opportunity with a brand new look. It will set up a new platform for Sino African Trade and trade cooperation in a completely new mode. It is a new milestone in the development of Sino African Economic and trade cooperation.

Ethiopia China Dongguan Huajian international light industrial park will strongly promote the development and construction of Ethiopia's local economy. By the end of 2013, 3500 people had been employed and ready to develop into a footwear industry cluster in the next 3-5 years, with 30 thousand people planned to hire, while the whole cluster might employ 100 thousand people.

It covers an area of 126 hectares, with a total investment of 3 billion 200 million yuan, with an overall development volume of 1 million 369 thousand square meters, of which 638 thousand and 600 square meters of industrial development, 538 thousand and 800 square meters of residential development, and 191 thousand and 600 square meters of commercial development.

After the completion of the project, part of the labor-intensive manufacturing capacity in Dongguan can be pferred to the local level. More than 6 of the products of Ethiopia footwear, clothing and handbags will come from Huajian international light industrial park.

The Industrial Park fully embodies the Chinese elements, brings the symbols of Chinese characteristics into the overall space design, and develops a production and living function plate on the basis of Huajian Avenue, Huarong Avenue and civilization Avenue, and creates a sustainable, efficient industrial city with vitality and charm, and a city with integration of production and city.

The new town is mainly divided into 9 parts: industrial area, industrial comprehensive area, apartment residential area, townhouse, single family villa area, business office area, commercial district, shopping center area and Waldhotel area.
