Import substitution for sports equipment manufacturing has risen sharply since the beginning of 2017
Russian production of equipment for winter sports has increased sharply over the first quarter of 2017, according to RIA. According to Rosstat, increased production of ski poles and fixtures — more than two times. The reason for such dynamics experts call the long winter season, the effect of the TRP program and the policy of import substitution.
According to Rosstat, in January-March 2017 the production of ski poles and fixtures increased by 107,3% (to 193 thousand pairs), ski — to 47,4% (191,66 thousand pairs). A positive trend, but more modest, showed manufacturing hockey equipment: hockey sticks production gave an increase of 15.9% (up 122.2 per thousand pieces), skates is 10.4%.
According to the President of the Association of sports industry enterprises Alexey Belozerov, today mass sports market has switched to local production, and the production is based on the pre-order companies: in the last two years due to falling ruble, the pricing has changed, and retailers began to look for new suppliers.
The expert also notes that the growth industries of the equipment, much attention was given by the program TRP. It can be seen, including the difference between the development of production facilities: hockey, unlike skiing, is not included in the delivery of complex TRP. It is known that now in Russia about half a million people with the status of Amateur players and professionals. Production of professional hockey clubs in Russia, established last year, in Bashkiria. The declared capacity of production — about 40 thousand sticks a year, is now made about 20 thousand. These clubs in the Gagarin Cup finals, played some hockey players "metallurg".
But the skates of Russian production are weak competition for the same Chinese, on the price: in retail of domestic skates will cost not less than 1,4 thousand, and the Chinese — less than 1 thousand. According to experts, China's more advanced production technology. In Russia the technology is lost: there are now only 4 manufacturer of skates, with all component parts are imported, including blades. Is not more than 15 thousand pairs of skates, the industry requires a large investment.
Note also a small increase for the first quarter of the year showed a production of winter sports clothing (5.2 percent, to 470 thousand units). In the sports light industry, according to Alexey Belozerov, the situation is complicated: of the 2 billion market for 1.5 billion accounts for large international corporations and only 0.5 billion for the rest of the company, including Russian. Equipment and materials imported. Russia started the production of membrane fabrics used in suits for skiing, but in this niche there is competition with Vietnam.
We will add, according to forecasts from Rosstat, the production of equipment for winter sports in Russia may grow by the end of 2017 at 25%.
