Brazil is one of the biggest producers of footwear and leather products and has been supplying the world with high quality, stylish shoes and purses since the 1960s. Brazil Heels was launched in 2019, but our story began back in 2015 when our founder, Lilia Costa, emigrated from Brazil to Canada. Lilia would often receive compliments from other people about her shoes, recognized an opportunity and set out to bring the distinct style and quality shoes of Brazil to North Americans by selecting the best Brazilian brands. Since then, she’s been working to grow the business – to promote Brazilian footwear and to meet customer demands.
