Towards a new vision for a responsible leather supply chain

What is the Sustainable Leather Forum?

Consumers of leather products, and of fashion more generally, are increasingly aware of the values championed by labels.

Preserving know-how and expertise, ensuring local and regional production, protecting natural resources, promoting animal well-being, adopting short supply chains and respecting the value chain: companies in the leather sector, whether major groups, SMEs or middle-market companies, are already implementing actions in these areas.

The Sustainable Leather Forum will showcase best practices in the leather sector in the areas of Corporate Social Responsibility, from a social, environmental and economic perspective.

The subjects discussed:

Actors in the fashion and luxury markets moving towards CSR

CSR, from farming to finished leathers

Manufacturing, sourcing, distribution and CSR in footwear

The sustainable approach in the leather goods sector

Who is the Sustainable Leather Forum for?

Anyone working in the fashion, leather, footwear, leather goods and luxury sectors, in France and abroad.

This ranges from hide producers to tanneries, manufacturers of footwear and leather goods to distributors of finished goods, as well as public bodies, institutions and opinion leaders.
