Collective Brands is looking to bank on its collective efforts in shoe making and retailing. The holding company boasts a portfolio of premium and moderate footwear and accessories through its Stride Rite unit, a wide reach of about 4,875 Payless ShoeSource and Stride Rite retail outlets, and an established licensing and brand management unit in Collective Licensing. Collective Brands was formed in August 2007, when powerhouse Payless ShoeSource acquired Stride Rite, which is primarily a wholesaler to department stores and operates leased departments at Macy's stores. With brands such as Keds, Saucony, and Robeez, the company operates in the US, Canada, the Caribbean, Central and South America, and Puerto Rico.
