Metro Brands Partners with Clarks for Retail Expansion
Metro Brands, a company that sells shoes, has made a deal to sell shoes from the British brand Clarks in India and some nearby countries.
This means they will be the only store and website selling Clarks in those places.
Clarks' shoes usually cost between ₹3,000 and ₹7,000, which is the price range where Metro makes the most money.
Metro also saw a good increase in its online sales.
Besides Clarks, Metro is also changing how it sells other brands like Fila and Footlocker.
Metro is hoping to grow even more in the coming years.
Metro Brands partners with Clarks for exclusive retail and digital distribution in India and nearby countries.
Clarks' products will be sold in the ₹3,000–₹7,000 price range, where Metro already earns the majority of its revenue.
E-commerce sales grew 45% in FY25, now accounting for a tenth of total sales.
Metro's FY25 revenue increased by 6% year-on-year to ₹2,507 crore, with a 50-basis points growth in Ebitda margin.
Metro is streamlining its other external brands, including Fila and Footlocker.
