Happy Founder's Day!

Happy Bata Founder's Day! 🎉 On this day back in 1894, ambitious siblings Thomas, Anna and Anthony Bata wanted to turn their family shoemaking trade into a big business by establishing a new company in Zlin, Czech Republic. Courage, innovation, and philanthropy were key values right from the start, and helped Bata become one of the biggest players in the shoe industry worldwide.

We are immensely grateful to every single employee who contributes to our business day in and day out. It is your dedication and hard work that continue to drive our success. Together, as One Team, we commemorate Founder's Day by reflecting on our history, values, and achievements, while also giving back to our local communities.

Our global partnership with SOS Children's Villages International is part of our ongoing commitment to making a positive impact. This collaboration will further strengthen our efforts in supporting and empowering young people.

Founder's Day is a moment to celebrate our collective progress and to embrace the limitless possibilities that lie ahead. Let's take the next step together towards a brighter future.
