The September edition of Micam opened in Milan on September 17 with a total of 1,024 exhibitors, 520 from Italy and 504 from other countries. The exhibition runs until September 20, writes Leatherbiz.

President of Italy’s footwear industry body Assocalzaturifici, Giovanni Ceolini, said Micam can give Italian footwear manufacturers a much-needed boost.

Their presence at the event “will help give them confidence and develop their business in international markets”.
