Munro & Company, Inc., was established in
1972 as the successor to New Hampshire-based Connors & Hoffmann
Footwear Company's southern division, consisting of three
shoe manufacturing plants, all in Arkansas. As manager of
the southern division, Don Munro had set up Lake Catherine
Footwear in Hot Springs in 1960. In 1967 he added Addison
Shoe Company in Wynne, and in 1967 built Mount Ida Footwear
in Mount Ida. These three plants formed the nucleus of Munro
& Company. They produced men's and women's leather shoes
and boots for the major national retailers.
