✦ OUR STORY ✦

Crafting the Digital Backbone
of Footwear Manufacturing

Born on factory floors, shaped by real-world grit, and evolved through a decade of relentless innovation — SoleFusion is built by manufacturers, for manufacturers.
✦ WHERE IT BEGAN ✦
2014
Mumbai Karkhana — The Birthplace

The story began inside a manufacturing unit in Mumbai. Entrepreneurs Husain and Kasim faced the daunting task of managing thousands of articles, sizes, and colors using manual registers and disconnected spreadsheets.

What started as a practical WinForms application built with .NET and MS SQL to solve batch production issues has evolved over a decade into the AI-powered ecosystem you see today — serving over 500 factories globally.

✦ OUR COMPASS ✦

Vision & Mission

Guiding principles that drive everything we do

Our Vision

To become the trusted digital backbone of the global footwear industry by combining deep domain expertise with AI-driven software that simplifies complex operations — making intelligence accessible to every manufacturer.

Our Mission

To empower footwear manufacturers and retailers with reliable, scalable, and AI-assisted solutions that transform complex workflows into streamlined success — reducing waste, increasing efficiency, and driving sustainable growth.

✦ OUR PHILOSOPHY ✦

What Drives Us

Three core beliefs that shape every decision we make

1
Industry Realism

Built for the factory floor, not for the boardroom. We understand footwear manufacturing isn't generic — it's complex, dynamic, and demands solutions that embrace reality.

2
Simplicity

Powerful systems should be easy to use. We hide technical complexity under clean, intuitive interfaces so you can focus on what matters — making great footwear.

3
Accessibility

Modern AI and cloud technology should be within reach for every small and mid-sized footwear business. Democratizing intelligence is at our core.

✦ THE FOUNDERS ✦

Built by Manufacturers

The story begins with two entrepreneurs who lived the problem

H

Husain

Co-Founder & CEO

With over 15 years in footwear manufacturing, Husain brings deep operational expertise. He coded the first version of SoleFusion himself while running production floors.

K

Kasim

Co-Founder & CTO

A technologist with manufacturing roots, Kasim architected the evolution from WinForms to cloud-native AI platform, ensuring it stayed grounded in real factory needs.

"We built SoleFusion because we had to. The tools didn't exist for factories like ours. A decade later, we're still building — but now for the entire industry."
