ASSOMAC, industry exports fall: -6.77% in the first nine months of 2024

The difficulties of the Italian leather-footwear supply chain, combined with a complex international economic scenario, have had significant repercussions on the footwear, leather goods and tanning machinery sector. This is the picture painted by Assomac data, the Confindustria association representing Italian companies in the sector, which show a generalised crisis. A crisis that, in the first nine months of 2024, has strongly impacted the domestic market, without sparing exports (-6.77% compared to the same period last year).
