Kelpie 2nd Gear August 31, 2011 Share August 31, 2011 Just heard from a Taiwanese News that China 东莞 is the World Shoe factory, producing the once world largest output of mass produced shoes. However, about 40% of these factories have either closed or near bankruptcy. Most of the production have now been shifted to the cheaper places like Vietnam and Burma or even to the more rural areas in mainland. Do you guys think the next generation of cheap place to manufacture stuff will be in Africa? The average cost of making a pair of shoe in 东莞 is just US0.20 cents.

Maroon5 5th Gear September 1, 2011 Share September 1, 2011 10X of $0.20 is only $2.00... i suspect its jus labour cost. factory labour there is about USD 300 a month. one worker works 25days a month, 10hrs a day so total 250 hours, making 1,500 shoes a mth or 1 shoe every 10 mins. tat would indeed work out to b USD 0.20 per shoe. i dunno im jus guessing but fr my experience, the wage is about right.
