Growing demand for booths at EXPOCAIPIC May 2025
Preparations are in full swing for the 73rd edition of EXPOCAIPIC, the traditional trade fair showcasing suppliers of leather, materials, components, accessories, technology, and services for the footwear and manufactured goods industry.
The event is set to take place on May 13, 14, and 15 at the Costa Salguero Center in Buenos Aires.
It will be dedicated to the early presentation of trends for the Spring-Summer 2025/26 season.
According to CAIPIC -Argentine Chamber of Industrial Suppliers of the Footwear and Related Industry-, the event organizer, major suppliers from Argentina immediately registered as soon as the enrollment period opened, ensuring a comprehensive and diverse exhibition covering all supplier sectors.
Among them are renowned tanneries and leading sole manufacturers, a sector where Argentine suppliers have demonstrated high levels of innovation.
Additionally, CAIPIC has reported ongoing negotiations with Brazilian suppliers, who may participate either independently or through ASSINTECAL -Brazilian Association of Companies of Components for Leather, Footwear and Manufactured Goods-. If confirmed, this would be a notable change, as previous regulations restricted the fair to Argentine suppliers only.
Beyond the critical period that the Argentine footwear industry is going through, due to the profound changes in the country’s economic policy, the supplier-manufacturer sector remains expectant, awaiting the normalization of the consumer and production market in order to open a new stage with greater certainty and projections.
For this, the Argentine footwear industry needs the support of its suppliers, within a framework of meetings and exchanges of ideas, to plan upcoming products and collections.
