Executive summary
A good moment for the Spanish economy
Spanish economy grew continuously in the last few years, with the highest growth rates in the EU. As a consequence of this, the purchasing power of Spaniards is getting closer to the European average. The good economic situation had very positive effect on disposable incomes as this allowed for greater spending on clothing and footwear.
Asian products rule the market
Asian products have definitively found a spot in Spain both in clothing and footwear. With low production costs in Asia, an increasingly profitable importation system and a more efficient distribution network, Asian clothing and footwear products may not be of as high quality, but are certainly backed by very competitive prices. In order to limit increasingly strong import levels and protect national producers, the EU decided to impose a tax on footwear products coming from China and Vietnam in 2007.
External business is increasingly important
Spanish designers and manufacturers had to change their production system in the last few years due to the increasing imports from other countries at very low prices that they cannot match. Spanish fashion is making a place for itself in the market by offering unique products of high-quality design, materials and tailoring. They are also increasingly looking at expanding outside of Spain in order to generate revenues they may lose in the home market.
Changes in distribution trends
Spain is changing its purchasing habits. Traditionally, Spaniards chose to buy clothes and footwear in shops located in city centres or in neighbourhood shops, for convenience. This tendency is decreasing considerably as Spaniards increasingly opt for large shopping centres to buy their products. In these centres, one can find many different stores and brands in a single space. Time is increasingly valuable and shopping centres became the new focus of consumption.
A very fragmented sector
The clothing and footwear market is very fragmented in Spain. Thousands of companies compete in a very mature and complicated market. With so many small companies it is difficult to become popular and compete against giants such as Inditex, H&M or low-cost Asian products. This led to an increase in unemployment in both sectors. It is estimated 30% of employees in these sectors will be lost in the next six years.
