Apache footware aims to double Adidas shoe production

Apache Footwear India, the manufacturer for Adidas shoes in India, aims to double production of shoes from its special economic zone (SEZ) here to 8 lakh pairs a month by 2014.

At present, about four lakh pair of shoes are produced every month from the SEZ, located in Mambattu village of Nellore district.

Unrest in state is likely to hit industrial growth

The ongoing agitation for unified state has started showing its impact on the industrial development in SPSR Nellore district.

The Apache Footwear Company, which was planning to establish few more units and increase the intake in its existing facility at Mambattu, decided to put off the expansion.

The bandhs and the labour refusal to work on holidays to compensate for the production shortfall led the organisation to differ its plans.
