  XTEP was created in 2001. The corporate vision was to create affordable and high-quality footwear for the domestic Chinese market through brand-building as opposed to low-cost footwear.Quality overseas footwear technicians were brought in to strengthen the footwear line. In 2002, the apparel sector was also an appealing market for XTEP, and that year saw the accessories line come to fruition.Numerous awards were presented to XTEP for quality of product, sales volumes, and taxes paid, by the local and provincial governments.Seeing that the future of growth in China would be limited by increasing competition, XTEP initiated the “overseas agent/franchisee concept?for XTEP in late 2006. Overseas markets would be looked at with a view to export XTEP’s product lines, and strategic partners who were interested in procuring XTEP’s line of products were starting to work with XTEP. We have now agent distributors in Kazakhstan, Turkey & Kuwait.
