UK-based leather footwear producer Pavers England is to set up a manufacturing facility in India as well as expanding its retail presence in the country.

The new plant will be established in Ranipet, Tamil Nadu, at a cost of €5 million. Around 80% of the shoes made in the country will be exported around the world and the remaining 20% will be sold domestically. By the end of April, the company will be sold at 60 outlets, and it hopes to increase this to 500 outlets by 2012.
