The venue is celebrated for its sustainable design, abundant natural light, and panoramic 30-meter window offering expansive views of the city.
“Portugal currently exports over 90% of its footwear production to 173 countries across five continents,” APICCAPS noted during the inaugural edition. “The industry stands out for delivering premium-quality shoes that combine generational craftsmanship with cutting-edge design.”
