In recent years, China's shoemaking industry has developed rapidly. The total annual output of footwear industry accounts for 51% of the world's output. Meanwhile, China's shoemaking machinery industry has also been growing rapidly.

In the early 1980s, China's shoemaking machinery industry was relatively backward. Under the planned economic system, the enterprises of the Ministry of light industry of the Ministry of machinery and industry designated the production of shoe making machinery products, with a small variety of products and a low level of technology, which could not meet the needs of high-grade leather shoes produced in China.

In order to promote the development of shoemaking machinery industry, speed up the digestion and absorption of the timing technology and improve the level of the national shoe making machinery industry, during the 85 period, the former State Economic and Trade Commission and the former Department of light industry of the state formulated the "national key timing and one-stop development plan for the shoe making industrial processing equipment", which reduced and duty-free key parts needed for the import of domestic production equipment, all of which laid the foundation for the development of the shoe machine industry.

90s, China

Wenzhou

Wenzhou's shoemaking machinery enterprises take full advantage of this opportunity, the level of product technology and

Guangdong

The rapid development of Taiwan funded enterprises in Guangdong has also led and influenced the national shoe making machinery industry.

In Guangdong, Dongguan, South China Sea and Shenzhen, a large number of enterprises have provided spare parts, equipment maintenance and second-hand shoe machines for shoes factories, and now they have strong production equipment and can even produce bags and processing equipment.

Fujian

Jinjiang, Fujian, is the largest area for producing sports shoes, tourist shoes and casual shoes in China. At present, there are more than 3000 shoemaking enterprises, with an annual output of nearly 500 million pairs of shoes. In recent years, the city has introduced more than 2000 sets of shoe making lines (EVA), and nearly 60 sets of injection machines have been formed at one time.

The average annual investment in technological pformation is 800 million yuan.

West

China's western footwear processing base, Chengdu and Chongqing, has been established by the local government in recent years.

Qingdao

Qingdao, North China, is also an important area of shoemaking industry. There are several famous Chinese shoemaking enterprises, such as double star, Hengda, golden monkey and so on.

There are also low-grade shoe processing bases such as LAN Cun, but due to the slow development, most enterprises are basically manual and semi mechanized production, and the demand for equipment is not very large.

Jiangsu

Yancheng is located in the north of Jiangsu, where pportation is not convenient for coastal and big cities such as Guangdong, Fujian, Wenzhou, and economic development is relatively backward. There are not many shoe factories such as Wenzhou and Guangzhou.

However, in 80s, with the support of the Ministry of light industry, the Yancheng shoe machine was able to produce cutting equipment and export a lot.
