The Brazilians Are Coming, The Brazilians Are Coming!
The Brazilians, first they brought their bikini waxes and steak houses, then they almost single-handedly revived Miami’s real estate market. Now, they are bringing Carmen Steffens, Brazil’s biggest shoe company state side. The company has just opened their first east-coast shop in the US. First stop – Orlando’s luxury Mall at Millenia, which also boasts Burberry, Gucci and Rolex stores.
Will the Brazilian brand that has 250 stores in 17 countries be a hit in the American market? Time will tell as they put into motion their plan to sell franchises all over the country.
