MOZART and TAN are supporting the SSIA Convention 2026 as Bronze Sponsors

July 7, 2026

Together with our long-time partner TAN we are supporting the 119th Annual Convention this year of the Shoe Service Institute of America (As the title says) as a Bronze Sponsor. The event will take place on July 25th and 26th, 2026, in New Orleans (USA) and is considered one of the most important industry gatherings for the North American shoe repair industry.

Already since the 1990s work Mozart and TAN successfully together. TAN is our exclusive European distribution partner for MOZART products in the leatherworking sector, serving customers throughout Europe and numerous other markets, including the USA and Japan. The company has a history spanning over 120 years: founded in 1902 in Naples as a specialized dealer for cobbler supplies, TAN evolved into an internationally established provider of tools, materials, and accessories for the shoe and leather goods industry.

With our joint Sponsorship We support the SSIA's mission to sustainably strengthen the shoe repair industry. Sponsorship contributions will be used for, among other things, acquiring new members, educating about the benefits of shoe repair, creating training and information materials, participating in industry events, and expanding public relations.

Quality, precision, and durability are values that equally unite MOZART, TAN, and SSIA. With our commitment, we aim to contribute to promoting traditional shoemaking craftsmanship and actively support the future of the industry.
