Stephen Sothmann, President of the Leather and Hide Council of America (LHCA) writes that his oprganisation is proud to partner with the WWF to collaborate on a series of initiatives aimed at enhancing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices in the U.S. leather industry.
The ambitious agreement will position the U.S. industry as a global leader in sustainable leather production.
Sothmann stated: “We are very excited about the opportunity to further enshrine leather’s status as ethical and sustainable choice material for the global fashion, footwear, automotive and furniture industries”.
“Thanks very much to Mauricio S. for his partnership and guidance during the process. We’re excited to get started!”

We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
