Reports are being made about the inevitability of shoe making enterprises in Wenzhou moving out the area as a result of Wenzhou’s expensive land, poor power supply and increasing labour costs.

Zhu Feng, the secretary-general of Wenzhou Leather Industry Association, said there is a possibility that this could happen in the future, and it is becoming a concern that over 100 Wenzhou shoe enterprises could follow Aokang’s suit and set up a new production facility in Bishan.
