Pakistan’s leather exporters have submitted a round of proposals to the Pakistani Government aimed at improving the quality and standard of leather goods produced in the country.

The requests include the opening of institutes for the training of leather workers, the development of on-the-job training and the formation of exporters associations.

They also proposed that the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) develops research into the collection and storage of hides and skins, tanning, and the production of finished leather for export.

Such measures, the exporters said, would make Pakistan’s leather industry more competitive on an international basis.
