Where are soccer balls manufactured

Want to buy quality soccer balls? Want soccer balls that will last? Want to be a soccer balls brand or distributor?

Take some time to think about where soccer balls are manufactured.

Let's start with a quick summary ......

soccer balls are mainly manufactured in the Asian continent, with countries like Pakistan, India, Indonesia, and China accounting for a large percentage of their products worldwide.

The country that makes the most footballs

Thinking about all aspects of the soccer ball making process, from sourcing the rubber to stitching the black and white hexagons and pentagons together to form the complete sphere, the process is complex and a key reason why many of these large organisations choose to establish soccer ball production facilities elsewhere is the low cost of labour. The main countries that produce soccer balls are as follows

1. Pakistan

According to a report by the Labour Rights Organisation on the use of child labour in the production of soccer balls, around 75% of the world's soccer balls are produced in Pakistan.

Business Insider also supports this estimate, stating that the city of Sialkot accounts for 70% of the global assembly of soccer balls, with at least 1,000 factories employing nearly 60,000 people.

In the run up to the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Pakistan exported over 37 million soccer balls, which gives you a good idea of how many they are able to export.

2.India

This country is the second largest producer of soccer balls in the world, after Pakistan.

However, in 2018 they were overtaken by China, who managed to supply more soccer balls to European countries, where football distributors placed large orders for promotional purposes. This suggests that India's influence in soccer balls manufacturing - especially in terms of winning those lucrative production contracts - is declining over time.

3.Indonesia

Indonesia is another country that accounts for a much smaller proportion of global soccer balls production. Both Nike and Adidas have production sites here

4.China

The US imported over 60% of its soccer balls from China in 2018. china is set to become a world economic powerhouse and is known to have played a key role in the design configuration of the official soccer balls for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. These Brazuca match balls are said to be produced in a factory near Shenzhen, China. All of this is a testament to the strength of Chinese manufacturing
