André, the whole story

A family business that goes back generations, André was founded in 1896 by Frenchman Albert Levy, producing footwear for the masses. 7 years later, he formed a partnership with Jérôme Levy and together, they set up their first sales network, their concept being to sell a wide range of high quality shoes at affordable prices. Such was the brand's success that the duo opened their first shop in France in 1936. Today, André has over 500 stores nationwide selling a range of men's, women's and children's shoes.
