Sažetak
The changing industry dynamics, competition from the Far East, and ever-changing fashion trends of leather processing and manufacture of footwear and leatherwear necessitate the implementation of new strategic approaches. Leather manufacturing and processing industry companies in developed and developing countries have recognized the opportunities of the development of subcontracting relationships as a specific form of outsourcing that involves close relations and information exchange between companies. The purpose of this paper is to present subcontracting as the one of the most important strategies for the recovery of the Croatian leather processing and manufacture of footwear. In understanding benefits and limitations of subcontracting, the qualitative study on the sample of companies operating in the Croatian leather manufacturing and processing industry was conducted. The results suggest that the Croatian footwear and leather manufacturing companies have seen the benefits of subcontracting in the form of guaranteed markets, secured raw materials, and technical assistance. As this industry operates in a very inconsistent market, investigated companies agree that subcontracting is the strategy for bridging over the actual crisis, but they also suggest that the future of subcontracting is entering into business with higher added values.
