Nowadays, the city, where around one third of the national sports clothing is produced, boasts a vibrant, competitive textile industrial cluster that pools strength not only from its manufacturing advantages, but also from new growth drivers.<\/p>\n

Fashion, among others, is an effective growth catalyst. In March 2025, Quanzhou proposed in a 3-year action plan to craft an international fashion capital by 2027, aiming to cultivate a brand-new growth engine for local clothing and footwear sectors.<\/p>\n

It pledged in the document to forge a unique, internationalized fashion industry ecology via enhancing strengths in fashion-related industry, design, culture, commerce, consumption and lifestyle.<\/p>\n

With leading local producers acting in concert, cultural enablers such as elements related to the Maritime Silk Road, intangible cultural heritages and traditional culture including flower-decorated hairpins and southern Fujian traditional motifs helped local producers build their own styles.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, their R&D capabilities keep improving and new sportswear fabric keeps emerging together with extended product arrays in professional sports, outdoor consumption and other fields.<\/p>\n

Such efforts helped the city evolve from a pure manufacturer of sportswear and footwear to an industry pacesetter built upon a basket of renowned garment and footwear brands such as ANTA, 361\u00b0, and PEAK.<\/p>\n

Currently, the city has complete sub-segments for garment and shoe sectors including spinning, weaving, shoe-material production, molding, manufacturing, packaging, logistics, and marketing.<\/p>\n

Under such circumstances, “Made in Quanzhou” moves at a faster pace towards export branding of local producers and cross-border e-commerce, overseas warehouses and localized operation become key growth enablers.<\/p>\n

Since October 29, 2021, when Quanzhou Comprehensive Bonded Area started the “9610” mode designed to serve small B2C cross-border e-commerce operators, goods export mainly including shoes and garments under the mode surged notably.<\/p>\n

Its logistics regime incorporating international liner and aviation logistics services and related cross-border trade facilitation actions also contributed much to improving its global delivery capacity and efficiency.<\/p>\n

Together with overseas direct sales outlets, regional operation centers and localized teams put in place by local producers, Quanzhou is selling stylish sportswear and shoes to 100-plus countries and regions around the world.<\/p>\n
