Brand History
Since the beginning of its history, Planitoi S.A. has been concerned with building bases that allow the company to serve the entire family: babies, children, teenagers, women and men, offering everyone the same relaxed and youthful attitude, reflected in the footwear lines produced.
With clear goals, the company aims to offer a range of models with an attractive design, maximum comfort, high quality materials and durability, at a fair price.
Currently, at Its headquarters, it is possible to pay a visit to its showroom, where you can find all the brand’s collections, both permanent and seasonal.

Strategy
By investing in a targeted communication strategy, the company has two distinct audiences: Distributors and costumers.
For distributors, Planitoi S.A. presents the collections in good time and provide merchandising that will support the promotion of the products at the sale point. The company also shares with them the brand’s communication plan. At the same time, pays careful attention to the product’s packaging and presentation media, so they comply with the brand’s visual codes and identity.
For the consumer, the company plans advertising actions through digital media, aimed at increasing brand awareness. All communications are inspired by moments in everyday life, directly linked to the brand’s positioning.

Mission, vision and values

Innovation
At BEPPI®, we dedicate ourselves exclusively to the creation and development of footwear and accessories, with the aim of offering our customers up-to-date, innovative and exclusive products. To do such, we work hard to find the best raw materials, breathable linings and insoles, or other materials, prioritising quality so that we can offer our customers the best service. At the same time, in every new collection we put efforts to present shoes in different colours, sizes and styles, meeting the need for variety.

Do you know
One of the rules that governed the creation of the brand’s name, was that it couldn’t have more than two syllables. So, the first was BE, for Beatriz, and the second was Pi, for Pisco, the name and surname, respectively, of the wives of the two partners at the time, adding another “P” as a fantasy effect, thus becoming the final brand: BEPPI®.

What makes Beppi so different
BEPPI is joy, informality, relaxation, quality and youthfulness, setting it apart from other brands on the market.
At the same time, it has a global attitude, which emphasises a constant evolution and adaptation to the needs and trends of the global market, seeking to adjust to the essential characteristics of consumers.

History

Set up on 26 April 1981 by the then partners Francisco Rui Alves Subidé and Eduardo Marques Alfredo, it was then known as Planitoi – Jogos e brinquedos, Lda, and its business object was toys.

In 1983, the partner Eduardo Marques Alfredo fully ceded his quota, and Francisco Rui Alves Subidé ceded part of his, with the company now consisting of the partners Francisco Rui Alves Subidé, Fernando dos Santos and Jorge Luís Soares Maia, each with a 1/3 stake.

In 1993, partner Francisco Rui Alves Subidé ceded his share, leaving managing partner Jorge Maia with 60 per cent, being the remaining 40 per cent distributed among his family members, wife and three children, each with 10 per cent of the capital.

In 1994, the project of casual and casual sportive footwear was launched. Following this moment, an application was sent to register the BEPPI trademark, which was granted by INPI, under the number 301041.

In 1997, the company changes its name from Planitoi – Jogos e Brinquedos, Lda, to Planitoi – Importação e Exportação, lda.

Community registration for the BEPPI trademark was applied on 13 August 1999 and granted on 5 June 2000 with certificate no. 001278514.

As a Portuguese company, Planitoi S.A. leads the domestic market with its BEPPI brand products. At the same time, it is looking to expand its exports, with the Spanish market being the most important, but it has also had good transactions in countries such as France, Italy and, more recently, the South American Continent, among others.

Currently, in addition to the BEPPI brand, Planitoi S.A. uses other own brands that derive from “BEPPI”, which also give their name to footwear lines, such as: “Way by BEPPI”, BEPPI Kid’s, “SNAKERS By BEPPI and Moonlight.
