ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Caleres, a global footwear company with a portfolio of brands that include Famous Footwear, Sam Edelman, Naturalizer, Allen Edmonds and Vionic, has been recognized on the USA Today list of America’s Climate Leaders 2023. This prestigious award is presented by USA Today and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.
