ABOUT Leather industry


Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer adipise cing elit sed diam nonummynibh euis.

Leather industry in India is a $12. billion business which produces 10% of the world’s leather goods. Being the second largest producer of footwear and leather garments in the world the industry is expected to grow at a 24% per annum growth in the next five years.

This industry has been one of the key sectors currently employing 3.09 million and is slated to employ more than 6.8 million by 2022.  55% of the workforce is below 35. These additional jobs require skilled workforce to meet the industry demand for productivity, quality and competitiveness.

However, the biggest problem confronting the industry in the country is the shortage of skilled workers for the manufacturing of leather goods using processes like clicking, cutting, tanning and other latest technologies.  There is a huge skill gap in various parts of the leather goods value chain, which need to be addressed. This includes the leather goods sector as well as ancillary industries, such as tanneries, and sales channels, such as modern retail, including organised market and e-commerce.

The ongoing schemes undertaken by various departments of the government show a lot of promise to get the country’s leather sector on par with the global standards and compete with the best.  In a boost to the industry, the govt. has waived off the import duty on machinery required for production. Also, a 100% FDI is being permitted for starting leather goods manufacturing units in the country.
