Why exhibit?
Pan African Leather Fair is an annual, international leather show covering the whole supply chain of the leather making and manufacturing industry. Aimed primarily at buyers from Africa and the Middle East, the international profile of the exhibitors will ensure that buyers from outside the region are attracted to source and seek new suppliers at the fair. In effect, it is an international business platform located strategically between Europe, the Middle East and Africa for conducting negotiations, networking, gathering market intelligence and attending educational seminars on contemporary topics.
Being an upstream event, key exhibitors include suppliers of hides, semi-finished leather, wet blue and crust; tannery chemicals, machinery, components and services. Visitors are tannery purchasing managers and technicians, leather goods and footwear manufacturers, hide and skin traders as well as distributors.
