China's sports equipment industry has a positive outlook on export sales in the months ahead. Many suppliers are anticipating growth of more than 10 percent by the end of the year, buoyed by strong demand generated by the FIFA World Cup in South Africa and other international events during the first half.
Several are also optimistic of global economic recovery becoming more stable, stimulating market interest in the latter months and through 2011.
Customs statistics for the first six months of 2010 support the sector's confidence. During the period, revenue from overseas shipments rose 22 percent to nearly $2.5 billion. Should earnings continue to accelerate at this rate, it will breach the $4 billion mark by December.
The report covers the major types of sporting goods exported from China, namely golf equipment, rackets, skates and skateboards, sports balls, winter and water sports equipment, inflatable boats, and protective gear.
