Zim to up crocodile skin products exports
Nkosilathi Sibanda, Business Correspondent
THE Zimbabwe Leather Collective (ZLC), in partnership with ZimTrade, has set its sights on vigorously marketing crocodile skin products as the industry moves to help local manufacturers do business in a sustainable manner to boost export revenue.
Already, ZLC has produced a product catalogue of crocodile skin manufactured products with the aim of opening up more opportunities for commercial trading. In the inaugural product directory, emphasis has been placed on the need for manufacturers to partner Government in the promotion of a sustainable way of using crocodile skin.
Bulawayo-based companies that have been put in the catalogue include Millennium Footwear Goodhope Leather, Book Set Leather Works, Safari Leather, Tana Africa and the country’s major skin processor, Zambezi Tanners.
