PORTUGUESE SHOES 2015 CAMPAIGN / "THE SEXIEST INDUSTRY IN EUROPE " PROMOTING THE SHOES & FASHION INDUSTRY

The Portuguese footwear industry exports more than 95% of its production to the most demanding international markets. In order to allow the sector to continue to take firm steps in a competitive international environment, the APICCAPS, a national business association, with the support of the Compete Programme, has taken various measures to promote Portuguese footwear. A campaign symbol for Portuguese shoes was developed using the slogan Portuguese Shoes: Designed by the Future. The image promotes a mark of quality and seeks to establish Portuguese Shoes as a sophisticated innovation. As a result of this strategy, footwear exports have grown more than 20% in the past  years. Portuguese shoes & Apiccaps association were honored in 2013 with the European entreprise promotion award prize for this great work. Today it's time to discover the visuals & the promotional video (here below) for The portuguese Shoes 2015 campaign.
