Number of Indonesian tanneries has halved in three years
03/03/2011
In 2008, Indonesia had 155 tanneries in operation.
APKI chairman, Haryono Sutanto, told leatherbiz: “Most of those who have closed have taken the decision to do so because it had become too difficult to secure the raw material supply they needed, while margins have become smaller. A tannery takes a lot of investment, and they felt the returns were not there.”
