Lehar Footwears Limited has announced a significant expansion of its manufacturing capacity with a new technology-enabled facility in Kundli, Haryana, aimed at strengthening its position in the fast-growing sports and athleisure footwear segment.

The company plans to scale up production capacity fivefold—from around 1 lakh pairs per month to 5 lakh pairs per month—in a phased manner. The new unit is expected to begin commercial operations from Q2 FY26.

The facility will manufacture sports and EVA-based footwear using advanced machinery, improving product quality, consistency, and operational efficiency. It will support both Lehar’s in-house athleisure brand ‘Rannr’ and its OEM manufacturing business.

This expansion aligns with the company’s strategy to shift towards higher-value products, enhance margins, and capitalize on strong demand driven by rising health awareness, increasing disposable incomes, and evolving fashion trends in India.
