The leather sector in Kenya is a potential economic cash cow. But for the sector to thrive, we need to add value to the raw hides and skins available in abundant quantities locally. We have to start exporting footwear and other valuable leather products.
Besides the much-needed foreign exchange, the leather sub-sector can generate thousands of jobs for our youth and lift many households out of poverty, particularly in the vast arid areas where livestock rearing is the economic mainstay.
