THE “ROBERTO GUERRINI” BRAND WINS US OSCAR FOR FOOTWEAR

One of the five titles in the competition STEPPING OUT IN ITALIAN SHOES, also known as “The Oscars for Shoes”, was won by one of our members, MAURON (Roberto Guerrini brand) from Montegranaro for the Men’s contemporary footwear category.

The competition was organised in conjunction with ANCI e ICE, together with the FOOTWEAR NEWS magazine who proposed the original nominations. Thereafter five winners were selected by US companies, as well as by US consumers who voted directly via internet. Three out of the five winners were local companies: Giorgio Fabiani (Fermo), Franceschetti (Montegranaro) and naturally Mauron.

Mauro Guerrini, Marketing Manager at MAURON and President of the Expool Consortium, is thrilled for the company to win this prestigious title. Founded back in 1977, MAURON has been prominent in the US footwear market for now over 10 years.

The competition winners will be awarded on 13th September 2009 during the New York Fashion Week.
