How to Build a Shoe Factory

What machines are needed to manufacture shoes?

Build A Shoe Factory

Today I want to introduce you to a company that makes shoemaking equipment. Elitech Footwear Technology Co., Ltd. is located in Taiwan with representative offices in Taiwan, China, Bangladesh, Pakistan, South Africa, Ethiopia, and Turkey. Elitech Footwear Technology can help you design and build a complete shoe factory. They have delivered complete factories to Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Haiti, and Kenya.

How do I build a shoe factory?

Elitech Footwear Technology can help you select the correct equipment to make leather shoes, sports shoes, boots, or sandals. You will need to specify how many pairs of shoes you plan to make per day. Elitech Footwear Technology has many shoe factory designs detailing the equipment you will need to build cutting, sewing, and assembly departments.

How much space do I need for a shoe factory?

The size of your factory will depend on the planned capacity. Roughly speaking, a complete footwear assembly line with lasting stations, buffing, cementing, and sole pressing will require a space 330 feet or 100 meters long. If the assembly line is split in the middle to create a U line, you will need 165 feet or 50 meters for all the belts, ovens, and shoemaking stations. With space added for cutting and stitching, you can fit a 700 pair per day factory into a space 150 feet/45 meters long by 65 feet/20 meters wide. Extra space will be required for raw material and finished product storage.

To run a footwear assembly line capable of making 500 pairs of shoes per day, you will need 50 workers. Of the 50 workers, approximately 10 need to be skilled equipment operators. Also, you need a Manager and Quality Control staff to monitor the daily operations.

To support the assembly process for your 500 pairs, you will need cutting and stitching staff. Depending on the complexity of the shoe you will need 50 to 80 stitchers and 10 cutters.
