Pavers snaps up another footwear group
19/07/2018
The terms of the deal have not been disclosed. It follows on from Pavers’ acquisition of another UK group, Jones Bootmaker, in February 2018.
“Herring Shoes is an incredibly successful business and has focused on internet and international sales,” said Pavers managing director Stuart Pavers. “The business has been family owned since 1966 and operates with many of the same values as we do here at Pavers. These similarities made the acquisition incredibly appealing to us. It allowed us to break into new areas of the footwear market while staying true to our own family values and high standards of customer service.”
Pavers will run its new purchase as a separate entity, with Herring’s existing team remaining in charge. Adrian Herring will continue as chairman.
He said: “We are passionate about our shoes. We think we offer the finest range of high quality English hand-made welted footwear anywhere online, or the high street. But at heart we are still that same family business dedicated to excellent customer service, and of course beautiful shoes.”
