Lehar Footwears Limited has commenced operations at its new sports footwear manufacturing facility in Kundli, Haryana, as part of its strategy to expand production and strengthen its presence in the sports and athleisure market.
The new facility has increased the company’s sports footwear manufacturing capacity by 150% to 2.5 lakh pairs per month, with a phased expansion planned to take capacity to 5 lakh pairs per month. Production will cater to the company’s in-house Rannr brand as well as OEM customers.
