At least one FIE exists in the corporate structure

We are a designer and retailer of branded footwear in Northern China. We were organized to service what we believe is an unmet and increasing demand for high quality formal and casual footwear throughout the PRC. As urbanization and individual purchasing power has increased in China, the demand for leather footwear has also grown.

Our principal business includes (1) the design or selection of design for men’s and women’s leather shoe lines (2) sourcing and purchase of the contract manufactured footwear (3) retail and sales of said footwear under our proprietary brand, “Hongung”. We operate a number of flagship stores throughout greater Qingdao. Our products are also brought to market through our extensive distribution network of authorized independent distributors as well as through third party retailers selected to operate exclusive Hongung brand stores on our behalf. Our company headquarters and main sales office is located in Shandong province in northern China, in the city of Jimo, less than 25 miles from the major urban center of Qingdao.

 
The PRC Footwear Market:
 
The size of the domestic footwear market in China is 28.5 billion dollars:
 
 
Even given the tremendous growth in the Chinese economy over the past 20 years, estimates from market research groups expect the Chinese footwear market to grow by at least 5% annual thorugh 2013 in terms of value. Furthermore, the average Chinese consumer still purchases far fewer shoes per year per capita than Korea, Japan or the west. As income levels continue to increase, it is expected that shoe consumption will approach levels of other nations with similar cultural consumption characteristics, so we expect our room to grow with the market will continue for the foreseeable future.
