“Now in Russia is a favorable time for the development of our own production, which is explained primarily by the capacious market - the volume of the shoe market in 2015 year exceeded 1,2 trillion rubles and 400 million pairs of shoes. In addition, Russian manufacturers got a chance to develop, among other things, due to the effect of the ruble devaluation - now in our country it’s cheaper to make shoes at some assortment positions at 15-20 than to place outsourcing orders abroad, ”commented Anton Titov, Director of GK "Shoes of Russia."
