WHO WE ARE
WALKING WITH PRIDE SINCE 1894
The Bata Group is a world leader in the production and marketing of footwear. Founded in 1894 by Thomas Bata, our company operates extensively in over 70 countries on 5 continents through companies controlled by the parent company owned by the Bata family and a network of approximately 5,800 points of sale that serve more than one million customers a day. In Italy, we are a leading company in the sector with over 240 directly managed and franchised stores and the online shop bata.it.
A STYLE FOR EVERYONE
When it comes to footwear, Bata satisfies your every desire. We have shoes for every customer and occasion of use: Classic, Formal, Casual, Sports, Outdoor.
WE ADD VALUE AND INNOVATION TO EVERY STEP OF YOURS
Our passion for shoes is expressed in the care with which we design, produce and distribute them around the world, and it is the same passion that drives us to constantly innovate. Some Bata shoes have become not only iconic, but also a global phenomenon. One of the first was the BATOVKA, a pioneering combination of leather and fabric, comfortable, elegant and durable. Then came the Bata tennis shoe, a sneaker with a rubber toe cap, one of the best-selling shoes of all time. We have also had many famous collaborations, including the John Wooden-designed AUTEUIL model "Wilson by Bata", with sportswear manufacturer Wilson Corp. and legendary basketball coach John Wooden.
COMFORT AND STYLE WALK TOGETHER
Our shoes are designed to offer maximum comfort, but not only. Fashionable, comfortable and at an affordable price, you can find them in the main world cities, from Milan to Nairobi, from La Paz to Singapore, as well as near your home, thanks to our widespread presence.
LET'S WALK FOR A BETTER FUTURE
We have never been driven solely by numbers. We have always believed in inclusive business growth that involves the well-being of the communities in which we operate. Our consumers are increasingly aware of the choices we make and how those choices shape our world. We believe it is our duty to act as global citizens and use our brand to create a better future. That is why we pursue an integrated strategy based on three fundamental and equally important pillars: planet, people, profit.
