Utility companies need to block traffic in order to service the public infrastructure. Film studios need to block traffic because traditionally it's been the only way to get street shots, especially when large film crews and big name actors are involved. Both are special cases that require special consideration.

What is the special needs use case for a shoe manufacturer?

I think the movie studios get permits more for the fact that it ends up becoming free advertising and good publicity for the city.
