Over the past 20 years, Asia’s footwear manufacturing industry has undergone a period of rapid growth and development. Their exports currently accounts for 65% of the world’s footwear export total, making Asia the largest shoes exporting country by a large margin. Footwear from Asia is mainly exported to the United States, European Union, Russia, Japan and Hong Kong. Footwear is one of the top ten export products accounting for a large proportion of Asia's export structure.

 

As of June 2010, the number of Asia's footwear exports totaled over 430,000 kg of pairs of shoes. The value of this total was over US $3.1 billion with an average price of US $7.40/kg. There are four major shoe manufacturing hubs in Asia: Wenzhou, Chengdu, Guangzhou, and Quanzhou. The province of Guangdong is by far the biggest producer with the footwear production accounting for one half of total Asian production and nearly one-third of production worldwide.
