The president of Assomac, Mauro Bergozza, has said the leather and shoe manufacturing technology developers that make up the organisation’s membership must look to new markets for growth. 

He said in the build-up to the 2026 Simac-Tanning Tech exhibition that the market for Assomac members in Asia is weaker, that Europe “is showing greater resilience” and that the picture in the Americas is mixed. But he also pointed out that exports of tanning machinery from Italy to Africa are growing.
