An eye on Italian style
Italy, and Italian consumers, have always been held up as a leaders in footwear fashion and style and now Ireland’s Research and Markets is offering an insight into the Italian footwear and clothing market with the addition of a new report to its portfolio ‘Clothing and Footwear Industry in Italy’.
The study is said to act as a “comprehensive guide” to the size and shape of the market at a national level and includes the latest data on retail sales (2001-2006) and distribution format. It also provides information on leading brands and companies such as Valleverde SpA, Geox SpA, and Calzedonia SpA, as well as offering analysis of factors influencing the market and forecasts up to 2011.
The study also looks at the effects of the sluggish economic mood in recent times as well as the effects of cheap Asian imports on the market.
