The Taiwan fitness-equipment industry has been around for more than 20 years. Initially, it focused on manufacturing relatively crude equipment with simple designs and functions. As production skills and technologies improved, makers began to offer advanced, state-of-the-art products. Today¡¦s Taiwan-made fitness equipment has sophisticated features and computerized gadgetry and technology. For the most part, low-end production has been moved offshore.

Fitness equipment gained in popularity in the early 1980s, primarily as a result of the fitness craze in the US. This caused American venders to place large numbers of OEM orders with Taiwan manufacturers and spurred the growth of the industry. However, in the last few years, Taiwan makers have begun to diversify their export markets and to stress higher value items by taking advantage of the potential of Taiwan's advanced electronic and information industries. Such products already rank second in export sales in the sporting goods industry, just behind golf equipment.
