It also plans to launch a premium women’s footwear brand by March next year.

Talking about the expansion plans in India, Stuart Pavers, president and chairman, Pavers England, said, “We have received an overwhelming response from India.

The company’s 25 new stores will come up in tier-I cities such as Pune, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Delhi. In addition, Pavers England aims at expanding its presence through stores such as Reliance Footprint in tier-II cities and has finalised rollout in Baroda, Mangalore and Nagpur.

On the company’s performance so far, Pavers said, “We reported a $5 million turnover in the last fiscal by establishing an integrated footwear retail chain across the country.”
