  • Maxwell, First IPO for 2011 Written by Insider Asia 05 January 2011
    Maxwell, first IPO for 2011 Written by Insider Asia 05 January 2011 China-based sports footwear designer and manufacturer, Maxwell International Holdings is slated to be the first initial public offering (IPO) listing on Bursa Malaysia this year. The stock will make its debut on the local bourse tomorrow. A slightly different shoe manufacturer Maxwell is the seventh China-based company to be listed on the local bourse and the fifth that is related to the footwear industry. As with its peers, Maxwell’s factory is located in Jinjiang, Fujian province, which is the footwear hub for China. The industry is extremely fragmented and highly competitive. Statistics indicate at least 3,000 shoe manufacturers in the vicinity ranging from small- scale cottage industries to large-scale automated production lines. However, Maxwell differs slightly in that it focuses on the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and ODM (original design manufacturer) segments of the sports shoe market. Its products are primarily court sports shoes (for soccer, tennis, skateboarding, basketball, badminton, baseball) and casual sports shoes (boots, shoes for children, hiking, retro and leather). As an OEM, the company manufactures sports shoes according to the specifications and designs provided by customers. Should it be required to, it can also design, develop and manufacture products for its customers (ODM). Maxwell counts well-known global brand names such as Yonex, Diadora, Kappa, Brooks and FILA as its end- customers although the company deals primarily with trading houses and brand distributors that represent these brands. By contrast, K-Star Sports, XiDeLang and Xingquan International are primarily own brand manufacturers (OBM) — that is their products are marketed and sold under proprietary brand names and distribution networks.
