Footwear Manufacturing

Establishments in the Footwear Manufacturing industry primarily engage in the production of footwear, including athletic shoes, dress shoes, boots, and sandals, using materials such as leather, rubber, and textiles. The core activity involves cutting, stitching, and assembling these materials into finished footwear products. This industry is distinguished from related industries by its focus on the manufacturing of complete footwear, as opposed to the production of footwear components or the retailing of footwear products.
