It is understood that in recent years, the shoe material market in the South has become increasingly saturated. With the large amount of labor flowing into the coastal cities of the north, the problem of "labor shortage" has begun to appear in the south. At the same time, many enterprises have gradually cancelled the import purchase of raw materials due to the cost constraints, and have been spawning unprecedented market opportunities in the north.

"The north market is broad, the competition pressure is small, the industrial foundation is solid, the footwear industry is developing at a high speed, and the market has a more obvious advantage than the south, which is the main reason for our gravity shifting northward."

Fujian province Fu Zeng shoe material limited company responsible person told reporters that it is reported that Fujian province Fu Zeng shoes materials Co., Ltd. and a large number of Southern shoe materials enterprises have turned their attention to the northern market, through the Qingdao leather shoes materials exhibition and other ways to find new breakthroughs.

"The 13 China (Qingdao) International leather, shoe machine, shoe material and footwear exhibition" will be held on 26-28 June 2012 at the Qingdao International Convention and Exhibition Center.

As the only professional leather shoe material exhibition in Jiangbei, Qingdao leather shoe material exhibition has always been the theme of high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection and intelligence, helping upgrade the industry, playing an important role in leading the leather, shoe machine and shoe material trend. Especially in recent years, it has provided a convenient, efficient and broad platform for the southern enterprises to enter the northern market. It has played a prominent role in excavating the potential of the northern market and coordinating the north and south market, and has won the "first exhibition of Jiangbei in China".
