Datateam Business Media, publisher of Footwear Today Magazine, has been regularly holding the award function to recognise the brands, retailers and other professionals from the footwear sector.
It is worth noting here that Skechers has earned the distinction of being the ‘Brand of the Year’ for 3 successive years from 2015 to 2017.
“To receive this acknowledgement amongst such notable brands that were short-listed in this category highlights the growing need for comfort-first footwear for children.” – Peter Youell, Managing Director, Skechers, UK and Ireland
Skechers, which continues to lead the footwear industry in cutting-edge style, recorded an overall growth of 11.4 per cent in Q4 2018. The brand attributed this growth to its e-commerce business and international retail.
For the same period, the brand increased its international wholesale business by 18.4 per cent and its worldwide retail by 7.5 per cent. The domestic wholesale business too saw a rise of 4.8 per cent.
