Bojan Mandura
Bojan Mandura is a young entrepreneur from Žepče, who, together with his wife Ana, became famous for launching successful fashion footwear brands, Lovidovi and Kuvet. After almost ten years spent abroad, where they completed postgraduate studies in Basel and gained significant work experience in online marketing and fashion, the couple decided to return to Bosnia and Herzegovina with the aim of starting their own business.
Their brands are recognizable for their handmade footwear, which is exported to the EU market, while part of the production is directed towards neighboring countries. Lovidovi is a women’s brand, while Kuvet focuses on men’s footwear.
Both of these brands strive for sustainability and quality, using natural materials, and each order is made to measure, reducing waste and protecting the environment. Bojan points out that their mission is not only to create quality products, but also to promote the “Made in BiH” label, which contributes to reestablishing the tradition of shoemaking in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Through its commitment to corporate social responsibility, Mandure focuses on direct interaction with customers, allowing them feedback that helps in constant product improvement. Their success story inspires many young people to return to their homeland and start their own businesses.
