On Wednesday 11 June, Assomac and the Council for Leather Export (Cle) signed an important protocol for collaboration in the Milan office of Aimpes.
Cle is the Association grouping Indian footwear and leather goods manufacturers and tanners.
The agreement - signed for Assomac by its Chairman Giuseppe Barrera and for the Cle by Sampath Srinivasan Kumar - was prompted by the Council for Leather Export itself, following the work done in Calcutta by Assomac in recent months, in particular the production of the study on the effects or relocating the city's tanning firms to the new Leather Industrial Park.
Among other things, the agreement envisages a number of initiatives providing technical assistance to Indian companies in the footwear, leather goods and tanning sectors. The main aim of these initiatives is to identify the companies' technological needs, which will be monitored by Assomac experts.
