Where we make our shoes
Suppliers
At Clarks, we believe in building long-term relationships - ones that not only benefit our business, but the people who make our shoes. That’s why over 80% of our footwear production comes from suppliers we have worked with for more than 5 years and some of them for much longer. For Spring Summer 2022, approximately 80% of our footwear products were sourced from directly managed suppliers, with the remainder sourced through specialist agents. We do also sell some handbags and accessories, but these are a small part of our total business. Most of the production takes place in Asia, with a small percentage of production in Europe and Central America. In most of these factories the facilities are shared with production for other brands and customers.
