Entrepreneurship Runs In The Family
May 29th 2019
Neely Woodson Powell, daughter of Worlds Away founder Lucy Woodson, recognized a need for comfortable, versatile footwear for the style-conscious women frequenting tradeshows. What began as wholesale distribution at furniture markets alongside her mother’s burgeoning import business quickly took shape as a full-scale fashion footwear line.
With an entrepreneurial spirit running in her veins, Neely formed Charleston Shoe Company. In 2010, she opened the doors of her first storefront in the iconic Savannah Market and shortly thereafter, a small storefront on a quiet and historic section of King Street in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. The Charleston Shoe Co. offers an affordable array of cobblestone-to-cocktail styles geared toward the modern woman looking to remain fashionable yet practical.
Charleston Shoe Co. is excited to announce store expansion in Southampton, NY and Highlands, NC, in addition to their current retail locations in various cities such as New Orleans, New York and many more.
