The Shoe Industry

     The shoe industry is one of the biggest moneymakers in the market, but it's
facing many changes, rushes, and difficulties.  The big power in the industry is
Nike inc. which all the other companies are trying to be like.  Some changes are
the industry as a whole is  moving there factories to the far east such as China.
The reason for this is they are trying to save costs for producing there shoes
by paying there workers less because they are in the far east.  Nike and Reebok
have already been in the east.  The shoe industry not including Nike inc. is

to get the people's support in there products because most people have faith in
