Company Performance Metrics
In 1953, two shoemakers, André Brantegem and his brother, started a shoe factory in the Oostvlaamse Lede. In 1962, André opened his own shop at the factory. The first Brantano store was a fact. There was a rapid growth with many new stores, providing self-service and convenience for the customer, choice and service. These basic thoughts are still
found in today 's stores.
Since September 2016, Brantano is part of FNG , a strong growing Benelux fashion group with activities across Europe.
