Relaxo Footwears has expanded its export business by entering the Moroccan market, according to Ritesh Dua, Executive Vice President of the company.

“This market is highly strategic for us due to its location in northern Africa and its significant European influence. While we are already established in eastern Africa, Morocco has long been on our radar. With its substantial demand for shoes and sneakers, we are focusing on introducing our Sparx brand in this region,” he added.
