           The leather division of Tata International has plan to increase its share in domestic market fourfold in the next three to four years by unveiling international products. They produced four million pairs of footwear in FY 18 and this rose to 4.5 million in FY 19.

Muthukumaran, Head, Leather products, Tata International Ltd.
         
          They will be investing about Rs 500 crore over the next five years on capital expenditure, to make synthetic and non-leather products and ladies shoes.

They produce 5 million pieces of leather articles, 50,000 pieces of leather garments, 8 million pairs of out soles, 6 million pieces of leather footwear, 2 million pairs of non-leather footwear and 40 million sq.ft. of finished leather.

          They are introducing ‘Saydo’ women’s shoe brand in India next year. Currently, it is being manufactured in India and Portugal and sold in Europe in limited number. The leather division of Tata International’s idea is to increase its sales volume both in India and Europe. And it is been retailed between Rs.2,500 and Rs.5,000 a pair. They have a good growth in year on year and they exported nearly 95% of its products.

          They are looking to achieving Rs.1,000 crore this fiscal, which would be an increase of 15% over the corresponding period last year. They export products to 30 countries such as the U.S and Australia and those in Europe. They are aiming at revenue of Rs. 1,500-1,600 core, when the sales volume touches 10 million pairs per annum.
