The 19th Mifur, the International Fur and Leather exhibition, closes with 14,228 visitors. The total number of visitors were slightly down (-2.85%) because of a fall in Russian buyers. Nevertheless, the exhibition holds up on all the other fronts.
theMICAM closes with an attendance figure of 33,372, including 17,606 international visitors:a drop in the number of visitors this year, attributable to the delicate situation in the Russian area and to a nation-wide public transport strike in Italy which made it difficult for people to get to the event. “We can’t believe the unions would organise a national public transport strike right on the day of the fashion accessories exhibition in Milan, considering that the city will be hosting Expo in less than a year,” commented Assocalzaturifici president Cleto Sagripanti.
