.................................................................................................................................144 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE TO STAKEHOLDER The name GEOX was created with GEA (“GAIA”) - Mother Earth - in mind, thinking also about how to use innovation to make people feel good, hence the “X” in our name. Geox’s objective is to improve the daily lives of its customers through innovative products that guarantee breathability. The “shoe that breathes” is a notion, an idea and a promise that, from the moment it was created, has become the keystone of Geox’s mission, aimed at well-being and total comfort. Here at Geox, we're convinced that it is essential to apply ethical standards and principles focusing on fairness and respect, solidarity, the protection of individuals, sustainability and environmental protection in order for our company, and indeed the world, to achieve long-lasting development. Over the years, our strong belief that even a simple pair of shoes can improve the well-being of the world and the people in it, has led us to continuously search for new and better ways to create our collections, paying more and more attention to quality and the environment. Human activity is undermining environmental harmony and does not always guarantee the best quality of life for people: that's why we believe it is of crucial importance for every company to evolve and put the well-being of the planet and society at the top of their list of priorities. A successful business in the 21st century has a responsibility to use its potential to contribute to solving today’s environmental and social issues. That’s why we've been working on a Sustainable Innovation initiative for many years now, regarding everything that we do. The time has now come to collectively involve all of you, and we want to help transform our industry, also by using our Non-Financial Consolidated Statement to tell the story of the large and small-scale measures that we’ve successfully implemented. Our aim is to guarantee full transparency for all of our stakeholders. Mario Moretti Polegato THE GEOX GROUP HISTORY It was almost 25 years ago when Mario Moretti Polegato, founder and chairman of Geox, came up with the revolutionary idea of piercing the rubber soles of his shoes, allowing his feet to breathe during a trip under the hot sun of Reno, in Nevada. So, why not create a product that’s as flexible and strong as a normal rubber sole, at the same time as guaranteeing extraordinary performance in terms of breathability and water resistance? When he got back to Italy, Moretti Polegato decided to develop his idea in a small footwear company belonging to his family, creating a new technology for rubber soles: that’s how the first “shoe that breathes” was born, which he immediately patented. After pitching his

  • Maxwell, First IPO for 2011 Written by Insider Asia 05 January 2011
    Maxwell, first IPO for 2011 Written by Insider Asia 05 January 2011 China-based sports footwear designer and manufacturer, Maxwell International Holdings is slated to be the first initial public offering (IPO) listing on Bursa Malaysia this year. The stock will make its debut on the local bourse tomorrow. A slightly different shoe manufacturer Maxwell is the seventh China-based company to be listed on the local bourse and the fifth that is related to the footwear industry. As with its peers, Maxwell’s factory is located in Jinjiang, Fujian province, which is the footwear hub for China. The industry is extremely fragmented and highly competitive. Statistics indicate at least 3,000 shoe manufacturers in the vicinity ranging from small- scale cottage industries to large-scale automated production lines. However, Maxwell differs slightly in that it focuses on the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and ODM (original design manufacturer) segments of the sports shoe market. Its products are primarily court sports shoes (for soccer, tennis, skateboarding, basketball, badminton, baseball) and casual sports shoes (boots, shoes for children, hiking, retro and leather). As an OEM, the company manufactures sports shoes according to the specifications and designs provided by customers. Should it be required to, it can also design, develop and manufacture products for its customers (ODM). Maxwell counts well-known global brand names such as Yonex, Diadora, Kappa, Brooks and FILA as its end- customers although the company deals primarily with trading houses and brand distributors that represent these brands. By contrast, K-Star Sports, XiDeLang and Xingquan International are primarily own brand manufacturers (OBM) — that is their products are marketed and sold under proprietary brand names and distribution networks.

  • Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear an INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
    Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear AN INDUSTRY ANALYSIS © 2020 Center for a Humane Economy. All Rights Reserved. SUMMARY Signicant developments in plant-based fabrics, plastics, and other synthetic products have spurred a sharp reduction in the amount of leather in footwear in the last decade, particularly in athletic shoes. The total number of shoes containing leather has declined by tens of millions in recent years. When you hear the name Stella McCartney, you might initially think of a high-end fashion show with models striding down the runway, cameras clicking, from New York to Paris to Milan. McCartney is also known for items suited to a dierent kind of runway — the track and eld kind. Her latest collection of shoes and athletic wear for adidas launched in March 2009, marking over a decade of collaboration between the fashion icon and the tness powerhouse. McCartney’s athletic wear line does not just strive for good-looking apparel. It’s also animal-friendly. Her line shuns leather, fur, feathers, wool, or other animal products. The McCartney brand equals cruelty-free. Adding to the sustainability credentials of these products, about 70 % of the fabrics McCartney uses come from recycled materials. Last year adidas released a cruelty-free shoe assembled with heat rather than glue that also addresses the international disposal of millions of pairs headed for landlls. According to Eric Leidtke, adidas’ executive board member responsible for global brands, “Futurecraft Loop is [the] rst running shoe that is made to be remade.” The key to its recyclability is the shoe’s design, which utilizes only a single ingredient – thermoplastic polyurethane – rather than the typical 12-15 materials which make recycling so dicult.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background One of the Most
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background One of the most important things for management to consider is brand. This is because the brand is considered to be the most valuable asset that can be created (Coelho, Bairada, & Coelho, 2020). Building a brand does not happen overnight, but it takes the process to create and develop the best brand; for the brand to be remembered by the customer, it takes hard work and discipline to build the name of the brand itself. Branding issues have been priority issues for all the companies for some time. Coelho et al. (2020) stated that brand constitutes one of the most valuable assets. In fact, the brand has been identified as a source of numerous benefits for both firms and consumers (Coelho et al., 2020). Then differentiation in any brand has become a major priority for any brand of tougher competition in every segment of the marketplace (Coelho et al., 2020). Economic development has a tough competition lately, especially for the brand that has the same product. Therefore, this situation will make every company need to readjust their brand in every political, economic, social, and culture segment. Other than that, the company also needs to readjust with the other brand company's pattern in running their company. This thing makes the competition between companies stricter in order to contribute to the market. Every brand will be sued to have their own uniqueness to make sales or even survive in 1 this tight market to make the customer choose their brand or product (Investment, 2018). The sports product market in Indonesia shows very promising growth.

  • Skin in the Game an Investigation Into the Illegal Trade of Kangaroo Parts in California
    SKIN IN THE GAME AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE ILLEGAL TRADE OF KANGAROO PARTS IN CALIFORNIA Published by the Center for a Humane Economy © 2020 The Center for a Humane Economy | Version 2.4 Table of Contents “Part of the reason you see companies use the phrase “k-leather” is that they don’t like advertising the fact that kangaroo leather comes from the hide of a kangaroo. The use of kangaroo leather is very controversial, with the sale of kangaroo leather products being banned in California, so the abbreviation helps hide the cleat’s contentious origins.” The18.com Looking At Different Cleat Materials: Which Ones Are Popular And Who Wears What? For context 3 Executive summary 4 Introduction 8 California’s ban on kangaroo products 9 Manufacturers of kangaroo leather soccer shoes 12 Retailers of kangaroo leather soccer shoes 18 E-commerce websites selling kangaroo leather soccer shoes 32 Discussion 40 Conclusion 43 More on the commercial kangaroo industry in Australia 46 2 © 2020 The Center for a Humane Economy SKIN IN THE GAME AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE ILLEGAL TRADE OF KANGAROO PARTS IN CALIFORNIA For context Commercial shooters kill some two million wild kangaroos a year in their native Australian habitat to profit from the trade in their skins, a toll that includes 400,000 joeys bludgeoned to death or left behind to starve after their mothers are slain. Recognizing the inhumanity of the industry, California’s legislature re-imposed a ban on the sale of kangaroo products in 2016. An investigation by the Center for a Humane Economy found that enforcement of the ban has been non-existent, and kangaroo skin soccer shoes from Nike, adidas, Puma and six other major manufacturers remain available at sporting goods and specialty soccer stores throughout the state.
