About ACME
At Acme, we began in 1994 with a mission to transform the fledgling safety shoe industry in India. Over the past 32 years, we have not only fueled remarkable growth in this sector but also established ourselves as pioneers committed to innovation, quality, and service.
Acme’s journey started in Gwalior, driven by the vision of providing specialized protective footwear to Indian industries where safety awareness was still minimal. We began small, with a single factory producing just 100 pairs of shoes per day.
