Pavers Voucher Codes

History of Pavers

Catherine Paver founded Pavers Shoes in York in 1971, in a bid to provide comfortable and stylish shoes that fitted well and were available at affordable prices. Paver initially began the business by running shoe parties at which she sold off old clearance stock from shoe catalogues that she purchased with a small bank loan. The first Pavers stores opened shortly afterwards in Scarborough, York, Hull and then Newcastle, and the first Pavers outlet was established in 1996 at Royal Quays in North Shields.

In 2000 a sister company was set up to trade footwear online, and it was the amalgamation of this company with Pavers that led to Pavers establishing its own successful online trading presence.

In 2007 Cathy Paver was awarded a Drapers Footwear lifetime achievement award in recognition of her success in the footwear retail field. Paver has also continually directed her efforts towards fundraising as well as growing her business and in 2006 the company raised more than £45,000 for Marie Curie Cancer Care via a limited edition design promotion.

International expansion began in 2008 with the launch of a new business venture in Chennai, India, while back on home soil in the UK further expansion continues to take place, with new stores being opened alongside a further drive to promote Pavers' online shoe sales.

Pavers Shoes is now recognised as a leading UK retailer of comfort footwear for men and women and has more than 115 stores and outlets across the UK and Ireland, as well as its well-established online presence and catalogue shopping service. The business is still run by the Pavers family out of its head office in York, with Cathy's son Stuart currently the company's managing director.
