Birkenstock Footprint Sandals, Inc.
 PROFILE
You can walk from Woodstock to the stock market in your Birkenstocks. Birkenstock Footprint Sandals is the exclusive US importer and distributor of the German-made footwear that was transformed from cult status to mainstream hip as the look of the 1970s re-emerged. The company's high-comfort products include more than 400 styles of shoes, sandals, and clogs for men, women, and children. Birkenstock sells more than 2 million pairs annually in the US through more than 3,000 retailers, more than 100 licensed shops, and four company-owned stores. Founder and president Margot Fraser is gradually turning the company over to employees, who now own 40% through a stock-ownership program.
