Who We Are
PBS Management (PBSM) is a global fashion management company specializing in the design, development, supply chain management, and production of sport footwear and handbags. With a strong manufacturing focus in Africa and the Indian Subcontinent, we provide flexible, cost-effective, and responsible production solutions for today’s global brands.
As global tariff measures continue to evolve to address aggressive pricing and maintain market competitiveness, outsourcing beyond traditional production bases has become essential. PBSM offers strategic alternatives to China, helping clients reduce tariff exposure while maintaining high quality, speed, and cost efficiency.
Our core production is based in Ethiopia, with additional manufacturing support in Kenya, India, and Bangladesh, allowing us to tailor sourcing based on customer preferences, product requirements, and workflow demands.
PBSM is led by a team of fashion-driven entrepreneurs with over 30 years of industry experience, delivering world-class footwear and handbag manufacturing to markets across Europe, North America, and the Middle East. Our strength lies in deep trend knowledge, precise execution, competitive pricing, and consistent on-time delivery.
From product development and sourcing to production and quality assurance, PBS Management manages the entire process—allowing our clients to stay focused on growing their core business.

Experience & Global Sourcing
Sourcing across Ethiopia, Kenya, Bangladesh, and India gives our clients a significant competitive advantage, particularly in navigating global tariffs and shifting trade regulations. Our diversified sourcing model allows brands to remain agile while reducing dependency on any single production base.
PBSM clients gain access to high-quality products, competitive pricing, and tariff-advantaged manufacturing, helping them stay profitable in a rapidly changing global market.
Over the past 10+ years, PBSM has developed, trained, and partnered with manufacturing facilities across Ethiopia, Kenya, Bangladesh, India, Cambodia, and Vietnam. These facilities operate to international standards and are structured to meet the demands of U.S., European, and multinational brands.
Sustainability & Circular Production
In the footwear industry, sustainability and circular production are no longer optional—they are essential. PBS Management integrates responsible material sourcing, waste reduction, and efficient manufacturing practices throughout the supply chain.
Our circular production approach focuses on extending product life cycles, minimizing environmental impact, and reintegrating materials back into the production process whenever possible. By aligning sustainability with cost efficiency and quality, we help brands meet environmental goals without compromising performance or competitiveness.
Company Ethics
PBSM is committed to providing safe, fair, and non-discriminatory working conditions. We work exclusively with manufacturing partners that uphold international labor standards, including regulated working hours, clean and safe environments, and a strict zero-tolerance policy toward underage labor.
Our partners contribute to employee healthcare, education, and housing initiatives, supporting long-term workforce stability and community growth.
At PBSM, we believe in a people-first philosophy, treating both individuals and the environment with respect—because responsible business is the foundation of sustainable success.
