Footwear in Malaysia: New research report available at Fast Market Research

Footwear was experiencing slower growth in 2013 with a 8% current value growth while in 2012 it has posted a 9% value growth. This was because of government policies which has impacted consumers’ spending patterns as some consumers will only purchase when necessary. However, they continued to demand footwear since it is essential item for everyone. Other than with price discounts, many companies tried to compete and offer consumers quality footwear since consumers were more quality-conscious rather than price-conscious.

Competitive Landscape

Bata (M) Sdn Bhd led sales in 2013 with 7% value share and recorded RM294 million value sales. The reasons were Bata successfully opening 227 retail outlets in Malaysia with 42 located in the city and 185 family stores which led consumers to purchase conveniently in any Bata outlet. Bata’s success was driven by satisfaction of consumers with its comfortable shopping experience when visiting Bata’s stores as well as its wide variety of footwear offered for men, women and children.
