In 2017, global private equity player TPG was looking to make additions to its investment portfolio. And the global investor, which has been investing in India for about two decades, settled on the footwear brand Campus. Around four years later, TPG’s bet seems to have paid off.
Today, Campus is the largest sports and athleisure footwear brand in India in terms of value and volume. As of FY21, it had a market share of 17% in the branded sports and athleisure space.
And now, the footwear maker is launching its public issue in a bid to hit the bourses. The Campus IPO is all set to be launched soon.
