Madrid: UNIC, with Assomac, showcases Italian leather to the Spanish brands

There was an excellent turnout on the evening of July 2 at the Consulate General of Italy in Madrid. There, UNIC – Concerie Italiane, together with Assomac, as part of an event organized by ITA – Italian Trade Agency, showcased the excellence of the Italian leather supply chain and tanning technology to an audience of representatives from the Spanish fashion industry, institutions, and the media. Approximately 180 stakeholders were expected to attend, though the actual number of attendees was likely even higher.
