ABSTRACT
This project looked into the attitude of consumers towards locally made shoes in Onitsha Anambra.
The problems involved in this study was that the shoe industry does not seem to yield much needed efforts with respect to huge sacrifices of the manufacturers as well as the government. This is true in the sense that most of the viable shoe industries are almost at the verge of liquidation.
The following hypotheses were stated in other to achieve the object of the study.
Ho: That the quality of made in Nigeria shoes has no influence on the consumers purchase of it.
Hi: That the quality of made in Nigeria shoes influence on the consumer’s purchase of it.
Ho: Presence of foreign shoes in Nigeria does not affect sales of locally made shoes.
Hi: Presence of foreign shoes in Nigeria affect sales of locally made shoes.
Some of the finding in the research are that the presence of foreign shoes in the Nigerian market affect sales of locally made shoes and also that consumers perceive the price of locally made shoes to be high in relation to their foreign competing brands.
Based on the above findings, the researcher concludes that the acceptance of locally made shoes is generally not encouraging within our society and this is because consumers still regard them as being highly prices compared to the foreign shoes.
From the above conclusion, the researcher recommended the following for improvement.
The researcher recommends that the importation of foreign shoes into our domestic market should be banned and also that our local manufacturers should try as much as possible to improve on their production so as to attract numerous consumers.
