1892 FLORSHEIM Shoe Factory Photo

Thanks to MetropolitanPlaceChicago.com for sharing this wonderful photo of 1892 FLORSHEIM factory. As per their report, by the end of the 1990s, Florsheim Shoe Group Inc. had about 10 percent of the market for men’s dress shoes, making it the leading company in the trade. By that time, when it was doing close to $250 million in annual sales, only about 10 percent of its some 2,000 employees worldwide worked in the Chicago area.
