Sustainable Footwear Manufacturing Lowers Environmental Footprint

The trend of fast fashion has brought manufacturers in the footwear market under the scrutiny of regulatory authorities to lower their environmental footprint.

As such, the global footwear market is anticipated to surpass the production of ~44,620 million units by the end of 2030.
