Prices of cattle hides in Bangladesh have not been fixed for the Eid-ul-Azha this year after the demand and price of leather fell in the international market.

“Though the tannery owners and traders had fixed prices to collect cattle hides matching the international market in past three or four years, the prices cannot be set this year due to the uncertainty created by the depression in the international market,” said president of the Bangladesh Finished Leather Goods and Footwear Exporters Association (BFLGFEA), Belal Hossain.
