Perhaps a signal that Americans are feeling more confident in the economy, but Italian footwear brands are looking back to the US as a market to expand into.
- Italian footwear exports were up by 13.3%
- Italian footwear increased in value by 24.75% in the US last year alone
- The Italian Footwear Manufacturers’ Association (ANCI) held its recent showcase in New York last week, promoting 15 stand-out Italian brands
- “The US is now the third largest market after France and Germany” states Fabio Aromatici, ANCI’s general director
Oh my word – – – enough with the economy and finance info, let’s talk fun Italian footwear!!
