Aigle d’Or has reached a major milestone in its development with its international expansion. On saturday, november 29 2025, the brand inaugurated its very first international boutique in Dakar, the capital city of Senegal.
Founded in 1965, Aigle d’Or is built on a well-established expertise in the craftsmanship of zebu leather from Madagascar. With a network of 45 stores across the island, the brand has selected Dakar as the starting point for its expansion in West Africa, a dynamic market driven by a strong fashion culture and a growing appreciation for authentic and sustainable materials.
This opening also represents an important step in promoting Malagasy craftsmanship internationally, highlighting local artisanal expertise and the excellence of zebu leather beyond national borders.
An offering true to the brand’s values
Located in the heart of Dakar’s business district (corner of Moussé Diop Street and Jules Ferry Street), the new boutique offers a 100% genuine leather collection for the entire family, including dress shoes, casual footwear, bags, and accessories.
Aigle d’Or’s vision is guided by a clear and consistent commitment: to make genuine leather accessible without ever compromising on quality. Each piece is meticulously crafted by the brand’s Malagasy master shoemakers, perpetuating a heritage of skilled craftsmanship that has been carefully preserved and passed down over time. This philosophy is reflected in the Wolof expression highlighted by the brand, « Taaru dère degg » : the beauty of genuine leather symbolizing a shared African identity and a common attachment to authenticity.
This establishment in Senegal marks the beginning of a new chapter. Aigle d’Or is embarking on a new journey, connecting Malagasy craftsmanship with the vitality of West Africa.
