Pou Chen Corporation (
Taichung City
, Taiwan.
The Group was founded in
Converse and Salomon. It owns production lines in China, Indonesia, Mexico and Vietnam. Its subsidiary, Yue Yuen Industrial Holdings (SEHK: 551), is the world's largest athletic shoe manufacturer which focuses on footwear material manufacturing.[3][4]
In April 2014, 40,000 workers were protesting Yue Yuen Industrial Holding failure to pay the full social security and house renting contribution. The protests were triggered by a staff member who worked for 18 years at Yue Yuen who did not get her full pension. The company did not pay 250 yuan per month to the employee that they should have.[5][6][7]
Besides footwear business, Pou Chen used to engage in
assembling.[8] However, the erupted global financial crisis in 2008 caused the group to readjust its business strategy and to dispose its 40% stake in GBM by auction in March 2010.[9]
