It was innovative from the beginning in that its founders intended the company to be a “shoe manufacturer”. This represented a significant departure from the centuries old tradition of the one-man workshop eking out a bare subsistence for his family on a Cobbler’s bench at home. By 1905 Bata had grown too some 250-company employees. At 2200 pairs per day, the personal effectiveness of each Bata employee far outdistanced the few pairs per day produced by their predecessors. The young company overcomes many early difficulties .In order to meet growing demand during the early years, new production machinery was found in other countries and innovative show making technique were devised by skillful and resourceful Bata employees. New kinds of shoes were introduced using new way to promote them. Bata’s reputation as the innovative industry leader has been, maintained ever since. Despite the outbreak of the first world wart material shortages, manpower shortages, corbels and other challenges, sales increased to about two million pairs by 1917. The post war economy presented a difficult environment for Bata. Currency was devalued and consumer purchasing power was at an all-time low. Tomas conceived a plan to adjust to post war economic difficulties by maintaining the focus on the customer and reducing the price of shoe significantly. A tight focus on the customer had again process itself as a sound strategy. Tomas Bata thinking in terms of expansion into new markets even as a teenager, travelling to Vienna to sell his shoe to the city’s merchants. While still a young company, Bata exported shoes to the USA, Europe and North Africa. By 1918 the likelihood of the company’s 6,000 employees could only be guaranteed by aggressive marketing and future foreign expansion .In the early 1920’s Bata established new companies in Poland, Yugoslavia, Holland, Denmark, the United Kingdom and the USA. In the early 1930’s Bata and Czechoslovakia were the leading footwear exports in the entire world. Bata also create companies while provided the communities with rail services, building construction, Insurance, publishing and new tannery. To all Bata companies was applied the Bata system one of its most impotent and innovative elements was the arrangements of autonomous workshop through which all employees were provided with the opportunity to contribute ideas and to know in exact figures how this personal day to day achievements would directly affect profitability of their departments. Remuneration was with complete control of their economic destinies. New companies were also established in Egypt, Belgium, Finland, Luxembourg, Hungary, Italy, Indonesia, Singapore and India before Tomas Bata died prematurely in an airplane crash in 1937. Following the death of the founder Tomas Bata, international expansion was over seen by Mr. J. A. Bata with D. Cipera Bata convened the first congress of the international of young men .He had already worked in several leadership positions with distinction and would soon spearhead the establishment of our Canadian company. This company was expected to become the new international home base of the beginning of  World War II when it seemed likely the organization would lose Zlin .by the Bata employed 42,000 people and produced more than 100,000 pairs per year. Following the war, a temporary worlds headquarters was established in the UK to help rebuild the seriously depleted organization .In the early sixties the Bata international center was built in Toronto , Canada deliberately designed to present the building from being expanded . It thus maintained an efficient, been head office consistent with the policy of worldwide decentralization. Following World War II, Bata companies in Zlin and in many other countries were nationalizing by the communist governments. This create event more challenges for the reconstruction team .At first some of our companies were slow to react to the dramatic style shifts desired in most markets following the war, but then Bata invented the ladies pump during the fifties, which became so popular that it was even incorporated into the company logo in some countries. This reinforced the importance of the company’s long time commitment to individual innovation and achievement. During the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s the world-manufacturing base for footwear has shifted to developing countries, to the Pacific Rim and especially to China. Mr. T .G.

The main problem or barrier which is on their way to start using this channel is the payment method, they are working on that and it will be operational in short time span. IT Systems: They are using 2 key systems for data storing and processing, which are:  Point of Sales (POS)  Retail Information Management System (RIMS) Point of Sales: POS is in place in each and every retail store, all the data regarding daily sales is stored in it and then it passes information to RIMS, POS only stores data that is current; it doesn’t deal in historical data. POS works as initiative for the integration, all the retail stores record their detailed sales in POS and then it is automatically passed on to RIMS on daily bases to keep record and to ensure the safe inventory level maintenance. RIMS: RIMS is used for analysis and it has all the historical data. The main purpose for RIMS is to integrate all the data and provide the required information to both middle level and top management, so in that way it helps the top management to make decisions and thus can be categorized as Decision Support System. BSO (BATA shoe organization) has developed RIMS on their own, with the help of software engineers. They haven’t outsourced it; it is also used to check the minimum inventory level. BSO has an automated system in form of RIMS that information is automatically passed to the production department that these articles (designs) are less than minimum inventory level and hence the other departments work for that problem and distribute that article within the short time span. It also reduces their cost as they have not to bear the expenses to maintain large amount of stock in all the stores as well as it assures that the orders are fulfilled in time according to the upcoming demand from each area in which they are operating.
