About the beginnings of ShoppOut
Shopp Out began in July 2013 with 200m2 where the first brands that decided to opt for social initiative were installed. After a few years with a good reception from the public, the event has grown to consolidate two annual editions, which are celebrated in spring and autumn. The number of brands has been around for forty years and the exhibition space, the 4,000m2.
