Report Overview
Boasting a well-developed leather products industry that has been exporting since the 18th century, Indonesia has carved a niche for itself as an important source of midrange and high-end models in Asia.
The line benefits from several advantages, chief of which is workers' long experience in leather preparation and manufacture. This has allowed suppliers to achieve a high level of competence in producing buyer-specified designs.
Another core strength is the capability to readily accept orders in small quantities. Companies routinely send shipments containing 20 pieces or less.
This report focuses on the main types of leather products from Vietnam bags, footwear, fashion accessories and garments.
This Indonesia Sourcing Report is part of the Developing Country Sourcing Report series designed to provide buyers with information on new products from export manufacturers in Southeast Asia that specialize in hand-made merchandise.

Boasting a well-developed leather products industry that has been exporting since the 18th century, Indonesia has carved a niche for itself as an important source of midrange and high-end models in Asia.
The line benefits from several advantages, chief of which is workers long experience in leather preparation and manufacture. This has allowed suppliers to achieve a high level of competence in producing buyer specified designs.
Another core strength is the capability to readily accept orders in small quantities. Companies routinely send shipments containing 20 pieces or less.
The industry is highly export oriented. Although the line is composed of SMEs that typically do not have direct export capability, output from these makers can reach foreign destinations through large domestic buyers and marketing agents.
Products are mainly sent to the US and the EU, with the former accounting for about half of turnover in 2009. An increasing number of suppliers are shifting to the Asia-Pacific region, however, since demand in these neighboring countries is growing.
The industry is divided into four subcategories. Among manufacturers featured in this report, bags comprise the largest segment as these take up nearly half of total exports. Fashion accessories, footwear and garments each account for roughly one-fifth of overseas turnover.
The overwhelming majority of suppliers are locally owned businesses. A few are foreign-invested. Most were established within the past two decades, although a handful were set up in the 1970s and 1980s.
The main sourcing centers in the country are the provinces of East and West Java, and Bali. The special region of Yogyakarta is also a key supply zone as makers set up shops there to take advantage of its booming tourism industry.
The leather products sector has remained relatively unaffected by the global economic crisis because of its competitive advantages. Nonetheless, a number of challenges are facing suppliers.
The following are some of the key trends we see in Indonesia's leather products industry:
- Manufacturers are expecting difficulties in procuring genuine raw leather, particularly cowhide. Because the material is sold at higher rates when exported, vendors are increasingly shifting to overseas markets, creating a shortage in the local supply.
- Prices are seen to remain generally unchanged over the next six months as makers take different steps to increase competitiveness.
- Because of the improving business climate in various overseas destinations, suppliers anticipate export revenue to grow over the next 12 months. In fact, nearly three-quarters of featured companies expressed confidence in posting higher earnings this year.
- Upcoming releases will have more embellishments and enhanced aesthetic elements.
This report covers the main types of leather products made in Indonesia, including hand, shoulder, duffel and clutch bags, wallets, purses, pouches, portfolios, backpacks, casual and dress shoes, sandals, boots, jackets, pants, dresses, belts, and bracelets.
The Industry Overview section discusses key issues affecting export manufacturers and elaborates on the composition of the industry.
The Products & prices section details the features and price ranges of the various categories covered. It also lists the main materials used and sourcing centers where models are produced.
Methodology:
This Indonesia Sourcing Report is part of a series designed to provide buyers with information on new products from export manufacturers in supply markets that specialize in handmade merchandise.
The Developing Country Sourcing Report series is part of Global Sources corporate social responsibility initiatives. It is offered in conjunction with The Kearny Alliance, whose mission is Aid Through Trade. The objective is to help create jobs in developing Asia through export promotion.
To produce this report, larger, midsized and emerging manufacturers all with substantial export experience were surveyed. The selection of suppliers is designed to reflect the composition of the industry in Indonesia in terms of geographic location, materials used and range of products offered.
For in-depth profiles, our researchers visited the facilities of each company and interviewed senior executives who discussed their recent performance and provided forecasts for the next 12 months. All other companies in this report were either visited or contacted by phone.
In each case, companies were required to answer specific questions designed to verify their manufacturing and export credentials, including a breakdown of exports by product type and market. Suppliers also participated in a survey designed to provide insight into the industry.
