EUROPEAN LEATHER INDUSTRY – A RESEARCH IN CURRENT CONTEXT
Abstract
As an industrial sector, the leather industry has contributed significantly to international trade. Due to growing concerns about sustainability, research in academic journals and scientific literature appears to be more common. Given the rapid advancement of technology and the resulting changes in all industries, the leather industry also faced obstacles that had to be surmounted. Despite the problems it is currently facing, the leather sector wants to keep its style and its knowhow within the European Union. This industry now has access to instruments that can increase yield, quality, and cost recovery speed because to advancements in technology. As a result, this work discusses issues that have arisen at the European level of the leather industry, including the revenue, the growth of EU leather industry in different countries, the value of import/exports, the number of companies that manufacture leather. The writers got these elements by analysing the data supplied by Statistics in their own manner.
