Who we are

Today the Group is one of the leading exporters of hides and skins from Europe with over 40 employees in 4 countries. With a Group turnover in excess of 40 million euros we have a sound financial base with sales teams covering most of the globe.

Our company is specialised in the sourcing of top quality hides and skins from France, England, Italy, Ireland and around the World. Our head office is based near Tours in the Loire Valley of France, only one hour south of Paris by TGV train. As a guarantee of quality we only work with the largest industrial abattoirs and tanners in order to best satisfy all your raw and semi-finished leather requirements.

Apart from wetsalted hides and skins we also offer a various range of wetblue hides and splits, and selected salted croupons, bellies, shoulders and dossets.

Only the best origins are offered, taking into account grain quality, preservation, and hide take-off. The majority of hides sourced come from the northwest of France, Ireland, Italy, the UK and central and southern Europe. Only the best product is offered.
