Our Growth
Tracing our humble beginnings back to 1997, where we initially launched as Arvind Footwear. Now, AFPL has grown into a leading manufacturer, producing 10,000 pairs of shoes daily across three units.

By June 1998, we were producing 1,000 pairs of Western boots per day. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction fueled our growth, leading us to expand our facility in 2004. This expansion enabled us to diversify our product range and enter new markets, including Spain, Germany, Sweden, and Norway.

Scaling New Heights
April 2016 marked another significant milestone as we reached a production capacity of 5,000 pairs per day.
