Leather goods market in France - statistics & facts
Before becoming one of the major products in the global market as we know it nowadays, leather was used by our ancient ancestors. Far from making bags, wallets or shoes out of it, the first women and men used the skins of the animals they hunted as protection against cold and external dangers. The treatment of leather gradually improved until it became a real commodity, and leather goods have now become an essential part of our consumption habits.
