Global Footwear Mumbai

You can find Global Footwear Mumbai over on Kambekar Street. We are in the Batatawala Building, specifically at Shop No. 1, numbers 72/74. It’s a very old part of Mumbai and the streets are always packed with people. Our shop is right on the ground level. It’s not a very large space, so we have to use every inch of the walls for display. Sometimes it feels like the shoes are going to fall on you. The Batatawala Building has a lot of history and you can tell by looking at the walls. We’ve been here for quite some time now. It’s a lively spot. You hear the vendors shouting and the bikes zooming past all day long. We don't have any fancy decorations. Just some simple shelves and a few chairs for people to sit. We spend our time talking to locals and sorting through the sizes. It gets very humid in the summer, but we have a small fan that helps a bit. Being at Shop No. 1 makes it easy for people to spot us as soon as they reach the building. We are just a small part of the neighborhood. It’s a lot of work keeping up with the foot traffic, but we stay at it. We are just regular people selling shoes on Kambekar Street. We don't really have a big marketing plan, we just wait for people to stop in.
