China'S Footwear Industry Clusters Have Strengthened Their Own Construction &Nbsp, And Promoted Industrial Upgrading.

China is a big manufacturer of shoes, with an annual output of 13 billion pairs of shoes, accounting for more than 60% of the world's total output.

In various provinces and regions such as Chongqing, Zhejiang, Anhui and other shoe-making industries, the footwear associations established and guided by the Federation of industry and Commerce have actively acted on strengthening their own construction, serving their member enterprises and promoting industrial upgrading, making unremitting efforts for the healthy development of the industry.

"Three" management of innovation mechanism

Chongqing Bishan shoe industry has been produced for more than 50 years, and is the ten largest in China.

In the management of footwear industry associations, one is to compete for posts, and the leading body can be humanized.

In line with the principle of selecting a good person, being able to unite a group of people and driving one side of the people, we should try to bring outstanding and competent entrepreneurs into the chamber of Commerce.

The two is to improve the standardization of mechanism management.

According to the actual situation of the footwear industry association, under the guidance of the County Federation of industry and commerce, a series of operation management systems of the footwear industry associations have been formulated to promote the standardization and institutionalization of the chamber of Commerce.

The three is to standardize the construction of the chamber of Commerce in accordance with the requirements of "seven have".

"Seven have" that is, there are full-time and part-time personnel, fixed office space, financial security, responsibility system, information on membership, collection of funds from accounts, accounts of the chamber of Commerce, and record of activities of chamber of Commerce.

Serving members

Wenling is the "famous shoe city in China". There are 6000 shoe making enterprises and 220 thousand employees.

In 2010, the output reached more than 1 billion pairs, accounting for 10% of the total output of the country.

The fourth election of the Wenling shoe and leather industry chamber was completed in the near future.

Expanding the new field of service is the focus of the shoe and leather industry association's consideration.

Wenling's footwear industry has been hit by the EU's directive on the prohibition of harmful azo fuel in the footwear industry.

In response to this "directive", the chamber of Commerce declared to the provincial quality inspection bureau "the Wenling footwear industry should respond to the EU Directive on prohibited harmful azo dyes, formulate alliance standards, and break through the standardized implementation project of technical barriers to trade".

The chamber of Commerce set up a project leading body to carry out the division of responsibilities between the various teams, and formulated the alliance standard "Wenling shoes harmful substances limit and testing control standards", and set up a service platform to promote the implementation of the alliance standard.

At present, the project has been checked by the provincial expert group, and has received obvious social and economic benefits. It not only saves the inspection fee for enterprises, but also solves the order extension problem caused by the replacement of unqualified raw and auxiliary materials, and improves the market share.

In 2010, the export volume of 20 pilot enterprises was 310 million US dollars, an increase of 35% over the same period last year.
