Market Opportunity: Why Now Is the Right Time
India’s footwear industry is expected to reach over USD 30 billion by 2026, growing at a steady CAGR of 9%. As urbanization spreads, fashion awareness increases, and disposable incomes rise in smaller cities, the demand for branded, value-for-money products has exploded.
While many high-end brands cater to metro cities, the demand for affordable branded footwear is underserved in semi-urban and rural markets — a gap Elite Footwear is perfectly poised to fill.
With over 65% of India’s population residing outside Tier 1 cities, Elite’s franchise push aims to meet this booming demand and empower local business owners to capitalize on it.

- Initial Setup Assistance: Site selection, design consultation, and launch support.
- Visual Merchandising: Pre-set layouts and product displays that reflect Elite’s visual identity.
