Former tanner and International Council of Tanners (ICT) President Lisa Howlett has passed away unexpectedly. By ILM.
She ran the family-owned Auburn Leather, which made leather laces, until 2018 when it was acquired by ISA TanTec, before retiring in 2021.
She was also President of Leather Industries America (LIA), which became part of what is now the Leather and Hide Council of America (LHCA).
A spokesperson for the ICT noted: “The ICT expresses its sorrow at the passing of Lisa Howlett. Lisa was president of the ICT from 2018-20 and will be fondly remembered by her friends and colleagues in ICT.”
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.
