COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Fragmented market with emerging Korean brands
The hosiery market in Taiwan is relatively fragmented, with the top 10 players accounting for 53% of value sales in 2025. A variety of players are competing, including small and large, local and international, providing both branded and private label hosiery.
Local brands to gain share through collaborations
The government is encouraging local manufacturers to adopt sustainable practices, with initiatives like Taiwan's first Recycling and Redesign Center, which opened in 2025. There is potential for local brands to capture rising demand for premium eco-friendly products and for manufacturers to develop differentiation via technical innovation and sustainability.
