Our history
The opportunity
Our founder Salvador Gama Carpio Born in 1923, he was admitted as a student at the “La Cruz de Hierro” shoe factory while he was in high school and soon learned to be a handyman. Years later he was lucky enough to meet Don Carlos González Ocampo , who gave him a job in his shoe warehouse where the shoes arrived in baskets balanced on the heads of the master shoemakers, and then he observed the styles, storage, packaging, shipping, replenishment, and payment. Everything interests him and he imagines improvements in each stage of the process.
The beginnings
After a while he decided to make his own shoes. His ingenious way of working, respect for the customer in terms of quality and delivery are reciprocated with loyalty and thus, quietly, persistently and effectively, Calzado GAMA comes to represent one of the longest-lasting and most prestigious brands in the history of the shoe chamber.
The experience
The most interesting thing about this story has been the great respect of the people that he earned through his example, perseverance, order and detail. He was a father to more than one, support for everyone, a friend of friends, a founder and promoter of dreams, a visionary and a good person with unbreakable values, faithful to his beliefs and ideas.
