United Nations Improves Shoe Competitiveness

   United Nations Industrial Development Organization In Latin America Pan continent Plan to "improve the leather industry in Latin America" Global competitiveness "


In March 21, 2011, when the United Nations Industrial Development Organization held a meeting at Novo Hamburgo city in southern Rio Grande, southern Brazil, Sergio Miranda-da-Cruz, director of the Ministry of agricultural industrialization development, proposed the plan.


From a strategic point of view, the United Nations Industrial Development organization wants Latin America to increase shoe production to fill the world trade gap in Asia, because the region will consume more shoes in the future. According to 2008 data, China sand finch technology research center occupies the world shoe. Shoe yield 63% of the rest of Asia accounted for 18%, and the United States currently accounts for 9%.


In Latin America, leather and footwear industries are based on the number of companies below and the number of employees working in these companies (both real and informal).


For Latin America, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UN) must develop and implement a plan to produce more shoes and fill the gap in the region's export demand growth in Asia, and then provide the plan. Support 。 The purpose of the plan is not only to business and industry, but also to enter the formal work sector through the withdrawal of seasonal operators or casual workers. There are about 60000 small businesses that need to be "formalized" or reorganized, which will have a social impact on the poverty-stricken communities in the region.


   The objectives of the plan are as follows:


Strengthening competitiveness in Latin America:


1. comparative evaluation of industrial performance


2. cleaner production technology and environmental protection


3. market information


4. increase productivity


5. quality control system


6. reorganization of product development and production units.


All sectors involved in the industry have set their specific goals.


Tannery operation - pollution control - the goal of reducing waste is clean production, waste water treatment, product manufacturing, tannery refuse and sludge safety treatment.


Footwear production: merchandising, product development, quality control, productivity improvement and investment promotion.


Leather products manufacturing: leather clothing and gloves, leather products, furniture decoration products industry, sporting goods (depending on the specific priorities of the participating countries).


When the plan is implemented, the common problems of all countries will be resolved, which will involve comparative evaluation, operator training, cross regional cooperation and technical assistance in the industry, all of which will help in the application and coordination of the plan.


  Innovative aspects of the plan


1., mainly from Latin America's technology channels and suppliers.


2. R & D network, quality inspection, vocational training and educational institutions.


3. it will cover the entire value chain: from slaughterhouse to sales point.


4., strengthen regional cooperation among trade associations.


5. strengthen technical cooperation so as to build a foundation for large-scale investment.


Brazil will be the first country to implement the plan, with an estimated budget of US $1591040. The Brazil National Association includes: Abicalcados, Abrameq, CICB and ABQTIC, which is expected to take four years to complete.
