S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 They already export the Minas way of making fashion to women in Bolivia and French Guiana. In their case, in foot fashion. And they plan to go beyond and sell more outside Brazil. The Arabs are in the target, with some contacts being made. Ahead of the Cl\u00e1udia D\u2019\u00c1vila organisation, a producer of shoes, is couple Milton and Cl\u00e1udia D\u2019\u00c1vila, who have been producing women\u2019s shoes since 1986, in Ub\u00e1, 300 kilometres away from Belo Horizonte.<\/p>\n
\u201cExports currently answer to between 10% and 15% of our revenues,\u201d said Cl\u00e1udia. \u201cBut this percentage should grow.\u201d According to her, a short while ago a businessman of Arab origin visited Ub\u00e1 interested in importing furniture, having learnt about the brand shoes and shown interest. \u201cWe sent a picture catalogue of our products, the Arabs interest us,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
Brand production is 10,000 pairs of shoes a month. In Brazil, most of the sales are to the states of the Southeast, Midwest and Northeast. According to Cl\u00e1udia, there are four different collections issued each year, two for winter and two for summer. In all, 400 new models are placed on the market each year.<\/p>\n
New releases for the hot season are being showcased at the 44th International Shoes and Accessories Fashion Fair (Francal) in S\u00e3o Paulo. The event opened this Tuesday (26th) and will continue until June 29th. \u201cOur biggest bets for the summer are midsole sandals, with higher heels and equally high front portions,\u201d Cl\u00e1udia explains.<\/p>\n
In addition to care with tendencies, the models signed by the entrepreneur are successful for their artisanal finish. And the \u201cMinas Gerais\u201d factor, of course. \u201cOur state has a tradition when it comes to fashion and handicraft,\u201d says Milton. \u201cEverything we do has a different touch, be it glitter, embroidery, a colour, a detail,\u201d he says. All of these are features that consumers appreciate, and they help open doors in Brazil and abroad. These are the best bets of the company to continue growing here and overseas. <\/p>\n
