Introduction

Footwear is the most common and utility-wise important end product of the Leather industry. India, which is one of the largest leather producing countries, is fast getting into shoe trade. Most European Business Executives are formal in their dress, unlike the somewhat casual dress code in the business sector of certain other countries. The location also influences the degree to which formal dress is required, for instance whether it is in the capital or the provinces and, accordingly, the style of footwear has changed. Court Shoe is used mainly in the developed countries and varies the heel height and design.


Market Potential

The manufacture of footwear is one of the traditional industries of India and Leather Footwear has meanwhile became an important product for the Indian and Export markets. Footwear serves to protect the human foot from all kinds of injury and is conveniently classified into open footwear and closed footwear.

The past five years have been a period of rapid growth for the Indian Shoe Industry. Many structural changes have occurred over the years in the footwear industry. More than 90% of footwear is produced by small scale and cottage units, which also accounts for 65% of all exports of leather footwear. 90% to 95% of the total output of the small and cottage industry are produced by manual or semi-mechanised methods.

According to the estimate, the degree of capacity utilisation in the footwear sector was around 60 to 65%. No official statistics exists for production capacities and actual production in the small scale units. However, approximately there are around 2,00,000 units existing in India producing around 400 million pairs of footwear.

Footwear exports have been encouraging during the past few years. The major importers of Indian footwear are the U.S.A, The Federal Republic of Germany, U.K., France and the other EC countries. Many other countries have also expressed interest in purchasing Indian Footwear because of the high quality of the calf and kid leathers. The Indian products also have a price advantage and lower wage costs that means the manufacturing costs are not too high. Other production factors, such as environmental pollution problems in the above countries may lead to greater imports of shoe from developing countries such as India.

Technical Aspects

Process of Manufacture

Presently, there is a tremendous change in the manufacturing of shoes. Various new processes have come up like cemented direct moulding, direct injecting etc. Besides this, unit soles are readily available in the market in different designs and standards with latest shapes for production.


Quality Control and Standards

Following BIS specifications for manufacturing shoes are

Footwear IS 2051
Chromed Leather IS 578
Leather Shoe IS 11543
Glazed Kid IS 576
Lining Leather IS 3840

Production Capacity

It is proposed to manufacture 1,80,000 pairs of Court Shoes @ Rs. 500 per pair, total value Rs. 1,30,00,000

Motive Power 5 k.Vs

Pollution Control

In particular, a Leather Shoe unit does not create any environmental hazards, the performance of Production System is through waste minimisation/utilities. It is observed that the waste emanating from 70% of the unit is utilised by the small leather goods (Tiny Sector) industries i.e. Chappal Manufacturing, Small Coin Purses manufacturing and Key Chain Purse Manufacturing units.


Energy Conservation

The Energy is spent in the factory in the form of electricity and fuel. The workers should be properly trained to operate the machines as and when required. They should be cautioned to yield maximum units during the machine operation and should not allow the machine to run by motive power unnecessarily. The electrical lines should be properly made and checked at
regular intervals.
