Raw material for tanners after Eid Al-Adha

06/10/2014
Tanners in many parts of Asia and Africa are taking advantage of the large number of skins that will have become available after Eid Al-Adha.

The Muslim festival of sacrifice took place on October 3 and 4, with many Muslims offering an animal.

A new Sudanese tannery is opening to take advantage of the available skins.

Nile Tannery and the European Shoes Factory are aiming for revenues of $150 million a year. They were recently visited by Sudan’s Minister of Defence, Lt Gen Abdul-Rahim Mohamed Hussein.
