The Ethiopian Leather Industries Association (ELIA) is once again organising the All-African Leather Fair, which will take place in Addis Ababa from February 20-22, 2013.

It will bring together tanners, footwear and other leathergoods manufacturers, as well as equipment and technology suppliers from all over the world. African companies and organisations are expected to constitute the largest attendance.

In the build-up to the event, the organisers said the fair is designed to promote the whole of the African leather industry and to enable it build stronger partnerships within the continent and around the world.
