Founded over 52 years ago, the ALDO Group has become a household name in retail, both in Montreal and across the numerous countries it operates in. But how does a footwear company continue to grow and be relevant decade after decade in the ever-evolving fashion industry? How can it adapt to stay ahead of the curve, while remaining true to its core values? How does it navigate the constant disruptions of new trends, accelerated technological advancements, shifts in consumer habits and purchasing power, while respecting new legislation?
In his session, David Bensadoun, CEO of the ALDO Group and the fourth generation of his family to work in the shoe business, will share 10 key ideas. Offering insights and sparking reflection, these ideas aim to present a current portrait of the Montreal-based company. You’ll discover how, thanks to the many challenges it has faced over the years, the ALDO Group always managed to emerge better and stronger, and to never lose sight of its true purpose to be on a journey to create a world of love, confidence, and belonging.
