South African sneaker brand Bathu has taken its first step towards international expansion by opening its first store outside of South Africa, located at Maerua Mall in Windhoek, Namibia.

The opening marks a significant milestone in Bathu’s growth journey. The brand, known for its stylish and high-quality sneakers, is now introducing its signature products to the global market.

Located in the heart of Windhoek, Maerua Mall is one of Namibia’s top shopping destinations, making it the perfect spot for Bathu’s debut international store. The store offers a curated selection of the brand’s iconic sneakers, including favourites like the Khalanga, Ndofaya, and Journey 2.0, as well as the latest collections that highlight African innovation and craftsmanship.

“This store is more than a physical space; it is a beacon of what is possible when African talent and determination come together,” said Theo Baloyi, Founder and CEO of Bathu Group. “We are proud to bring Bathu to Namibia, a country rich in culture and vibrancy. Our Maerua Mall store is a bold step forward in our vision of becoming an internationally recognised African brand, one that reignites hope and inspires pride.”

According to Bathu Group, the store’s opening also brings new job opportunities and an elevated shopping experience to Windhoek. Bathu remains committed to its mission of creating opportunities and making a positive impact, while introducing its philosophy of self-expression, perseverance, and authenticity to the Namibian market.

With this move, Bathu is not just expanding its reach, but also strengthening its position as a proud African brand with global aspirations.
