Cartbel Sapatarias is a family business with 21 years of experience in the footwear business. Initially it owned only one establishment in Rua de Santa Teresa, later expanding its business to Rua 31 de Janeiro. Similarly, in the early days of activity, this shoe store sells only footwear. However, with the emergence of new needs and wants from its customers, the offer expanded to meet demand. Thus, this space also had portfolios for sale.
These two types of product form the core of the Cartbel Sapatrias offering to those who visit it.
