Company Introduction

Footcare International manufactures, wholesales, imports and exports a comprehensive range of foot comfort and shoe care products.

Run by Managing Director Barry Kearney since 1978, Footcare International is a family-owned business driven by a simple strategy - to provide the highest quality foot comfort and shoe care products at the best prices.

Our Australian offices, manufacturing plant and warehouses are located in Bayswater, 35kms from Victorias capital city, Melbourne.

Footcare International imports products from the worlds leading manufacturers in the United Kingdom, China, Spain, Italy and India. We are also regular visitors to China where we have 13 suppliers and a warehouse in Guangzhou, Chinas third largest city. Footcare International also has a quality control agent in Guangzhou who is responsible for container freighting from China to Australia and to our export customers.

In Australia, Footcare International sells its products to many of the countrys biggest retailers, including Woolworths, Coles, Big W, Kmart, Payless Shoes, Priceline, ALDI, Sandler and Windsor Smith. Altogether, Footcare International products are sold in over 3,000 Australian retail outlets.

The export market is an increasingly important sales area for Footcare International with significant potential for further growth. Currently we export to the USA, Japan, the Middle East, Turkey, New Zealand, Ireland, and our biggest export market, Asia, where Footcare International products are sold in China, Taiwan, Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and the Philippines.

Footcare International has teamed up with a large Russian manufacturing and distribution company to begin distribution of its products across Russia. In addition to these expanding markets, in April 2011, the Footcare International Sales Team is visiting India which the business sees as an important growth area.

With the release of new products, and expanding sales and distribution in Australia and internationally, Footcare International is set to expand rapidly to consolidate its place as a World Market Leader.
