Kathmandu - Paragon Footwear Industries, a Nepali shoe manufacturing company of PG Shoes brand, has completed the silver year of its establishment from Sunday.
The
company was established on June 17, 2055, which has been serving Nepali
consumers with leather shoes and leather goods produced using Nepalese skills.
Managing
director of the company Ramhari Tolang says that the company, which has been
producing and selling quality leather shoes in Nepal since its inception,
started most of the work by hand.
In the
beginning, the products of the industry, which started with the production of
15 to 20 pairs of shoes, have now become nationwide. Paragon Footwear, which is
directly providing employment to more than 100 people from the industry to the
salon, and more than 350 manpower indirectly, is working to replace the
imported shoes and go to export in the future and bring about a situation where
customers do not have to look for foreign shoes, said Tolang, the managing
director of the company.
Managing
director of the company Tolang said that the institutional development and
business continuity of any company will be established through the continuation
of business based on sustainable market and local raw materials.
He
said that Nepali shoes produced by Paragon Footwear by combining traditional
technology and new technology are actually produced by taking into
consideration the geographical difficulty and the purchasing power of Nepalese.
Paragon footwear industry has been established considering the needs of ordinary
citizens, employees, students, army, police, etc.
The
managing director of the company, Tolang, said that the journey to complete the
silver year of the company was possible because the common consumers have
understood that Paragon brand shoes are not inferior to international brands in
any way.
He
said that the shoes made by Nepali hands are not only liked by the Nepali
consumers but also by the foreign consumers. He believes that if the Nepali
shoe manufacturing industries can introduce more new technology, Nepali
industries will definitely be able to compete with foreign products.
He
said that Nepali industries have a good future if they can produce attractive,
cheap and good products keeping in mind the Nepali consumers and also paying
attention to the international needs and preferences.
He
said that because Paragan did not compromise on the quality of modern leather
shoes and leather goods production, Nepali consumers now have a strong opinion
that Nepali brands are cheap and good.
