Mexico to host World Footwear Congress in 2014

02/10/2013
The European Confederation of the Footwear Industry (CEC) has named the Mexican city of Leon as the venue for the fifth World Footwear Congress, following Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro which hosted the conference in 2011.

Guanajuato is one of the leading footwear manufacturing states in Mexico, alongside Jalisco and Estado de Mexico, with an industry “characterised by a strong commitment to high standards and a passion for design and innovation”, according to CEC.

Around 600 participants - including footwear associations, manufacturers, suppliers, retailers, journalists and policymakers - are expected at the event at the end of November 2014, with topics and themes announced in the following weeks.
