Sapataria Carrapatoso | 1915
Anywhere in the world, a company that survives and adapts to the market for more than 100 years deserves a prize. In Brazil, and especially in Belém do Pará, the achievement is even greater.
The rise and fall of the Amazon rubber boom, a dictatorship, several economic crises and currency changes challenged many businesses, among them the Carrapatoso shoe shop, which still opens its doors to the people of Pará today.
This ad from 1915 ran in the magazine celebrating Belém’s 300th anniversary.
