Danish footwear brand Ecco is returning to the Philippines through a shop-in-shop concept at SM malls.

The brand has launched spaces at SM Store Makati, SM Store Mall of Asia, and SM Megamall’s third floor Bridgeway Building. The openings are part of the label’s strategy to continue its expansion in the territory as more shop-in-shop formats and eventually, concept stores at select SM malls are being planned.

Ecco operates in 87 countries at 2989 shops and shop-in-shops and  15,000 sales points globally. It remains one of the only major international shoe manufacturers to own and manage every step of the shoemaking process.
