1. Introduction• Cattle hides, calf, goat, & sheep skins,
leather & leather products prominent in world’s economy, value > US$100 bil/yr
• Raw hides & skins earn very small of total value of leather industry. Country exporting raw (Tz) get < 8%

• Tanzania summary; exports goat&sheepskins & leather
• Tz leather prod & trade values show quite underdeveloped• Numerous constraints
2. Constraints hides, skins, leather, leather goods
Farming• Pastoralism;• Management, feeds, water,
breeding, diseases, land use• Low investment, passive
farming
• Pre-production; Hot metal brand on cattle (84.6%), tick infestations, lumpy skin disease, ringworm, tumours & photosensitization
• Lack of human resource
Fig. 1: Singida abattoir requires rehabilitation, Figs. 2 and 3: Hides and skins drying shedsat Mwanza City Abattoir, not used because hides and skins are bought before animals areslaughtered, at slaughter place hides and skins are transported to private places fordrying, and then exported immediately to Kenya and Pakistan. Fig. 4: Blood being boiledand dried for animal feeds. Fig. 5 and 6: Horns, jaws, skulls, teeth and other bones beingcollected and transported away from the abattoir to preparation site for export to China

• Production; Poor facilities, tools,
• Lack of abattoir investment
• Little knowledge structure of skin
• Few skilled h/s flaying personnel
• Skins cuts
• After production; Air, ground, salting, lack of human resource
• Aberrant hides skins trade
• (Farmer—small trader—slaughterer—exporter), collusive trade
• Tanner is skipped and denied of h/s• H/s quality not done > external demand high• Hijack of h/s prevents quality in Tz• Local & foreign Co, pause as tanners but export
raw h/s, cargo inspect interfered
• Chrome wet blue; Mos, Mor, Kib, Dar, Ar, Hi, Mz, Do, & Sh
• Mimosa• Low rate, little quantities• Finished leather at Himo• Little quantities• Quality is fair• Lack of human resource
• Leather Manufacturing
Fig. 7: Leather production and processing to leather products is done after the hideshave been produced, cured and transported to tanneries. The hides are soaked inwater to original wet form, vigorously soaked in lime in rotating drums (a), washed inwater to remove the lime (de-liming), acidified to de-hair and tanned to permanenttexture through chrome to produce wet blue semi-processed product (b), then finishedand dyed ready for producing goods (c). Markings on live animals as seen in (e) willshow on the leather as observed in (d), thus preventing the leather in producing bags,covers, coats and other goods that need broad leather sheets. Leather produces manyvaluable products as seen in (f).

• Leather Trade
• Leather not on the market
• Lack of human resource
• Investment, market, competition
Leather goods
• Lack of factories;
• footwear, bags, upholstery belts etc
• Not on the market
• Lack of human resource
• 1-2 graduates in tz
3. Policy Implications• Major constraint is human resource• Graduates in leather manuf, proc, mark
required;• No trained personnel to assist city, municipal
& districts, public & private Co. To design & establish tanneries & leather goods factories, trade & market locally & internationally.
• An Institute with capacity to train, research & develop technology in leather is required
• To modernize leather industry innovative policy on training on leather technology required
6. Policy Recommendations
• 1. Train adequate human resource• Strategies• 1. Establish training programmes; BSc. Leather
Tech (SUA), DIT Mwanza• Practical & applied enable graduates to
– establish tanneries & leather goods factories– lead hides, skins & leather industry to high production & economic development
& creation of employment & profitable enterprises– Supervise & manage h/s & leather sci. & business– Be technologists, producers, processors & entrepreneurs– Plan & execute research in leather technology
• 2. Establish a National Leather Technology Institute to develop human resource & technologies to guide country on processes in leather production, processing & trade – budget this year
• 2. Utilize the hides, skins and leather resource to employ people
• Strategies• develop standard drawings for small to
medium leather goods factories & build them in districts to employ youths (SUA Model?)
• Harvest graduates from universities &, assist finances to build small/medium leather goods factories
• Target & utilize internal market (55m people) for Tzmanufactured leather goods
• Educate public to use leather goods• Tax used & synthetic goods dumped in Tz market.
• 3. Modernize slaughter house processes• Strategies• Invest in clean abattoir with facilities for h/s where
purchases can be made• Set appropriate laws for meat processing & sales, as
well as byproducts
• 4. Modernize livestock farming
• Strategies• Allocate funds to establish livestock farming
modernization program• Identify & settle livestock farmers• Give incentives to modern farmers• Find markets for modern farmers• Invest in animal feeds production• Subsidize modern animal farm costs• Invest in animal disease control
• Activate & educate farmers to transform• Allocate land for modern farming & assist
farmers get machinery to drill deep water wells & animal feeds development
• Set appropriate laws• Invest in changing people towards
responsibility & thinking; eliminate conflicts, transform resources
• 5. Eliminate aberrant & illegal trade on hides & skins
• Strategies• Set appropriate laws• Tax pre-slaughter sales of hides & skins• Tax loans that export h/s out of formal
channel.
• 6. Produce adequate & high quality leather
• Strategies• Improve quality of hides & skins on animals by
preventing pre-slaughter defects• Establish small leather goods factories• Increase tannery investments by demanding tanneries
to open shares to public in order to increase capital • Manufacture essential tannery chemicals lovally• Develop & also acquire from other sources leather
products designs
• 7. Promote leather & leather goods market in the country
• Strategies• Establish information programmes directed to public,
slaughterers & others• Educate public to buy leather goods• Tax more on plastics & used goods• Ensure availability of enough leather & l. goods• While limiting imports of synthetics & used goods
increase production of leather & leather goods• Enable regions invest in leather goods production
• 8. Reduce market competition• Strategies• Review rules on importation of low quality plastic
goods competing with leather• Limit importation of used goods• 9. Prevent ext forces wanting Tz to supply raw h/s
Strategies• Institute trade intelligence• Identify foreign companies operating illegally/ secretly
out of formal channels & stop them• Review rules on foreign Co. preventing leather prod.• Demand companies to sell shares
• 11. Make tanneries run to full capacity• Strategies• Require tanneries running at low capacity
because of little finances to sell shares to public to increase finances
• Make market/trade agreement with other countries to obtain leather market
• Review of agreements with Government• Take action on failure to comply with
investments codes agreed
