How to Accurately Evaluate the Export Value of Stock Footwear and Apparel and Key Points of Quality Control

Mar 17, 2025

In the dynamic world of international trade, accurately assessing the export value of stock footwear and apparel while maintaining strict quality control is crucial for the success of any business. This blog post will delve into effective strategies for both aspects.

Evaluating the Export Value

Market Research

Conduct in - depth market research to understand the current trends, demand, and price levels in the target export markets. Analyze the popularity of different styles, colors, and sizes of shoes and clothing. For example, in some Western markets, sustainable and athleisure - style apparel has seen a significant rise in demand in recent years. By knowing what the market wants, you can better estimate the potential value of your stock. Look at competitor prices for similar products. This not only helps in pricing your stock competitively but also gives you an idea of the upper and lower bounds of the market value.

Brand and Label Value

If your stock includes products from well - known brands or has unique labels, it can significantly increase the export value. Brands with a good reputation for quality, style, or innovation often command higher prices. Even if the products are from a less - known brand, but have some distinct features or design elements, these can be highlighted to add value. For instance, a line of hand - embroidered ethnic - style clothing can be positioned as a niche, high - value product.

Condition and Age of stock

The physical condition of the shoes and apparel is a key factor. Items in excellent condition, with no signs of wear, stains, or damage, will have a higher value. Check for any defects such as loose threads in clothing or scuffs on shoes. Additionally, the age of the stock matters. Newer styles and designs are generally more valuable. However, classic styles may also retain their value over time, especially if they are well - preserved.

Key Points of Quality Control

Pre - Production Inspection

Before production begins (if applicable for custom orders or replenishing stock), ensure that all raw materials meet the required quality standards. For footwear, this includes checking the quality of leather, fabric, and sole materials. In the case of apparel, verify the fabric texture, colorfastness, and strength. Make sure that the design specifications are clear and accurate. Any misunderstandings at this stage can lead to costly mistakes in the final product.​

 

In - Line Inspection

During the production process, conduct regular in - line inspections. This helps to catch any quality issues early on. Check for stitching quality in clothing, making sure that seams are straight and secure. For shoes, inspect the assembly process, including the attachment of the upper to the sole. Randomly sample products at different stages of production to ensure consistency.

Final Inspection

Before shipping the stock for export, perform a comprehensive final inspection. Check every item for any remaining defects. This includes visual inspection for appearance, as well as functional testing. For example, test the zippers on clothing to ensure they work smoothly and check the flexibility of shoe soles. Ensure that all labels, tags, and packaging are in place and meet the requirements of the target market.

In conclusion, accurately evaluating the export value of stock footwear and apparel and maintaining strict quality control are two sides of the same coin in the international trade of these products. By implementing the strategies outlined above, businesses can enhance their competitiveness and profitability in the global marketplace.​
