The president of Paraguay, Santiago Peña, led a delegation of ministers on a visit to the Durli tannery in Paraguarí, in the south of the country, on December 4.

During the visit, the president paid tribute to Durli’s contribution to sustainable manufacturing and to job creation in Paraguay. He said these values were entirely in keeping with the national strategy for economic growth.

Durli said it had used the encounter to present a formal request for the end of branding of cattle hides in Paraguay, pointing out that eliminating branding marks would add value to the entire leather value chain in the country.
