Research and Markets: Indian Footwear Market - Great Opportunities in Ladies' and Children's Footwear

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6e150f/indian_footwear_ma) has announced the addition of eprobe Research's "Indian Footwear Market" report to their extensive offering of clothing market research publications.

There are nearly 4,000 enterprises engaged in manufacturing footwear in India. The industry is dominated by small scale units with a total production of 55%. The total turnover of the footwear industry including leather and non-leather footwear is estimated at Rs.8500-9500 crore (Euro 551.3-1723.1 million) including Rs.1200-1400 crore (Euro 217.6-253.9 million) in the household segment.

India's share in global leather footwear imports is around 1.4%. Major Competitors in the export market for leather footwear are China (14%), Spain (6%) and Italy (21%).

The footwear industry exists both in the traditional and modern sector. While the traditional sector is spread throughout the country with pockets of concentration catering largely to the domestic market, the modern sector is largely confined to select centres like Chennai, Ambur, Ranipet, Agra, Kanpur and Delhi - with most of their production for export.

Presently, the Indian footwear market is dominated by the men's footwear market, which accounts for nearly 58% of the total Indian footwear retail market. In terms of products, the Indian footwear market is dominated by a casual footwear market that covers nearly two-third of the total footwear retail market.

As footwear retailing in India remains focused on men's shoes, there exists a plethora of opportunities in the exclusive ladies' and kids' footwear segment - with no organized retailing chain having a national presence in either of these categories. The Indian footwear market scores over other footwear markets as it provides benefits like low cost of production, abundant raw material, and a huge consumption market.

Indian Footwear Market by eprobe Research Pvt Ltd explores the consequences and opportunities arising from this situation.
