According to Kollaikal, 15% of the children\u2019s, women\u2019s and men\u2019s shoes and accessories sold sold at Hanox Shoes are Brazilian-made. \u201cWe expect to see that increase to 25% by the end of the year,\u201d said the buyer.<\/p>\n

The stores in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah opened in December of last year and span about 560 sqm each. In addition to manufacturing locally in the UAE and carrying product made in Brazil, the company buys from other countries, China and Italy included.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe find Brazilian product very interesting, the companies are highly professional, so I believe we\u2019ll be able to make great deals here,\u201d said Kollaikal. The head buyer also said the purchases made at Couromoda aren\u2019t one-off deals and will continue throughout the year. \u201cWe should be renewing these orders every two months,\u201d she revealed.<\/p>\n

Besides Kollaikal, two other buyers for Hanox Shoes were at Couromoda – Joju Abraham, head of business, and Jayakrishnan Mandiram, buyer for kids’ footwear – covering all sectors of the expo. Regarding the event, the buyer said: \u201cCouromoda is very organized, we\u2019re having a great stay and hope to make good deals. We\u2019re buying everything \u2013 women\u2019s shoes and sandals, men\u2019s leather shoes and children\u2019s shoes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hanox Shoes is an arm of the Sobha Group, a real estate multinational established by an Indian in Oman, 1976, with investments in the UAE, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Brunei and India. Kollaikal was also at Couromoda last year, buying inventory even as the stores were pending opening.<\/p>\n
