The Porsche Design Group and Muller & Meirer Lederwarenfabrik GmbH, based in Kirn, Rheinland-Pfalz, will also be collaborating in the field of shoes.
The two companies will join forces in developing and producing high-quality men's shoes under the Porsche Design brand.
The first shoes are to appear on the market in 2010.
In addition, a contract extension has been concluded for the soft luggage collection, which comprises leather goods and baggage.
Dr. Jurgen Gessler, Chairman of the Management Board of the Porsche Design Group, emphasizes the exceptional specialist knowledge of Muller & Meirer in the production of shoes: "Muller & Meirer is already producing high-quality shoes for other well-known brands.
The expertise of this company will enable us to complement Porsche Design's product range in an excellent manner."
Steffen Neumann, owner and CEO of Muller & Meirer, adds: "Our companies are linked by the pursuit of the highest possible degree of functionality, perfect technical manufacturing and emphatic puristic design.
We therefore have every confidence that the men's shoes will be just as successful as Porsche Design's luggage collection which we have been taking care of for over ten years."
