New date for the World Footwear Congress in Turkey
Under the theme "Reshaping the future", the 7th World Footwear Congress will take place between November 7 and 9, 2023, in Istanbul, Turkey. The event was rescheduled from its original dates in May, following the earthquakes that occurred in Turkey and Syria in February.
The catastrophe had the greatest impact on various areas in Turkey, some of which were locations of garment and footwear factories, as reported by the European Footwear Confederation (CEC).
The Congress is promoted by CEC, the Turkish Footwear Industry Suppliers Association (AYSAD), and the Turkish Footwear Industry Association (TASD).
