Italy-based footwear show Micam presented its awards for the best ambassadors of Italian footwear at a lavish ceremony in Milan last night.

The award for best domestic buyer, which is voted for by the trade fair's exhibitors, was handed to Roberto Zecchini from Michel Calzature in Bologna. The family-run business was founded in 1980 and opened a second shop in 2011.

The prize for best foreign buyer was awarded to Simone Prost-Boucle of Paul et Nany in Lyon.

The children's footwear specialist was established in 1951 and now operates six shops in Lyon and the surrounding area. The company has 27 employees, many of whom have been working for the business for more than 20 years.
