Leather & Leather Products: Export Opportunities Around the World

When it comes to strong and durable materials, leather is one of the first that comes to mind. It is made from animal hides and skins through a tanning process. The most common animals from which leathers are obtained are cattle, sheep, pigs, buffalo, goats, equine animals, ostriches, other aquatic animals, and even exotic animals (like snakes and alligators). From its earliest use (as clothing, footwear, and tools) to its modern-day application in various industries (especially fashion), leather has definitely come a long way. Today, it is regarded as one of the most important commodities in global trade. The demand for raw leather and its finished items continues to grow among bulk leather importers and international buyers of leather goods.
