Taking place in Addis Ababa in 2021, the events will commence on November 1, with the 5th World Leather Congress (WLC) organised by the International Council of Tanners and ALLPI under the theme ‘Leather – a Gift of Nature’. 
Delegates will then be able to attend the XXXVI IULTCS Congress, to be held on November 3 – 5, which will explore the theme of ‘Greening the Leather Value Chain’.
We understand that the WLC and IULTCS Congress will also be available to attend as online events.
On November 6 – 9, the All-Africa Leather Fair (AALF) will be held, dedicated to leather, accessories, components, footwear, leather goods, automotive and furniture. The International Union of Leather Technologists and Chemists Societies (IULTCS) said the Congress venue will be the Ethiopian Skylight Hotel, close to the International Airport in Addis Ababa.

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.
