Shandong has made full use of the regional advantages that have initially formed the cluster trend, such as Jimo's blue village, Weifang's Gaomi, Yantai's Laiyang, Weihai and Binzhou's Zhanhua, Yangxin and other places, striving for the support of the local government and establishing the "leather industry characteristic area".

With its relaxed policy environment, efficient administrative services and preferential land and tax policies, we established a quality industry based, integrity based, brand oriented, development driven, and leather industry characteristic area with strong exemplary role, leading effect and radiation function in the whole province. It fully embodies the comprehensive strength of industrial clusters, sets up the overall image of industrial clusters, and shows the competitive strength of industrial clusters.

The Shandong Leather Industry Association has jointly established the "high density shoe making industry base" and "Qingdao blue village shoe making base" jointly with the Shandong provincial SME office and Shandong light industry office.
