Shoes from Italy changes format for Kazakhstan and Ukraine

07/03/2019
Italian footwear industry association Assocalzaturifici has announced an important change to the events it has run for more than a decade in Kazakhstan and Ukraine. 

Its Shoes from Italy events in both countries will now morph into events called La Moda Italiana, starting with the event running in Almaty from March 5-7 and continuing with its sister event in Kiev from March 11-12.

Assocal has said the events have now expanded to include “the entire fashion industry” to present the retail market in both countries with a single event offering “an all-Italian total look”.

In the first ten months of 2018, Italian shoe brands exported 328,000 pairs of shoes, with a value of €22.4 million, to Kazakhstan.
