Chamber of Leather Industry - Cairo - Egypt

The Chamber of Leather Industry of Egypt plays a significant role in promoting and regulating the country’s leather sector. Established under the Federation of Egyptian Industries, the chamber aims to represent and defend the interests of the leather industry. It works closely with the government to shape industrial policies, provide input on legislation, and support the development of national and international investments in this sector.

One of the chamber’s major initiatives is the Cairo International Leather and Shoes Fair, a prominent event for the leather industry in Egypt and the Middle East. This trade show gathers manufacturers, suppliers, and buyers from various countries to showcase leather goods, footwear, and related technologies. The fair offers networking opportunities and a platform to promote Egyptian leather products to international markets. The chamber also oversees an industrial complex in Cairo dedicated to the leather industry, helping informal factories legalize their operations and access funding and marketing support.

The chamber’s efforts also extend to organizing events like the Arab International Leather Technology Expo, which highlights Egypt’s growing reputation in the global leather market. This exhibition serves as a vital platform for companies in the leather tanning, manufacturing, and technology sectors to display innovations and forge business partnerships​.

These initiatives contribute to the economic growth of Egypt’s leather industry by enhancing its competitiveness and expanding its export potential.
