Executive Summary
The history of the leather sector and tannery industry in Bangladesh started when R.P Saha set up
first tannery in Narayanganj back in 1940. It was later shifted to Hazaribagh area of Dhaka, which
turned into a location that now accommodates a large number of tannery units of the whole country.
At present, the leather sector of Bangladesh has 220 processing units located at different parts of the
country (mainly in Hazaribagh, Dhaka). But only 28 tanneries are in operation, among them 20 are
operating in crust section and 8 are in finishing section.
Total capital invested in the tannery industry is estimated at Tk 2.5 billion, of which
government/bank finance is about Tk 1.2 billion. Bangladesh currently produces about 20.0 million
sq. meters of leather and leather goods per year. Contribution of leather sector (hide &skin, leather
and leather goods, and footwear except rubber) to GDP is 0.31 (at constant price) in FY 2003.
According to Leather Sector Census Study,2005 total production of wet blue leather in 2003 was
3,50,60,000 square feet, crust leather 6,61,72,000 square feet, finished leather 13,48,20,000 feet,
whereas 1,67,66,000 pairs of leather footwear were produced in 2003 and 766000 pieces of leather
goods were produced in 2003. In 2004, 247 million square feet raw hides were available for the
leather industry, among which cow and buffalo hides were 184 million square feet and goat and
sheep skin were 6 million sq.ft. According to a report published by FAO in 2003 the numbers of
bovine animals in Bangladesh were 2,48,30,000 in 2002; the number of sheep and lambs were
11,43,000 and there were 3,44,00,000 goats and kids in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh has exported leather and leather goods worth 220.93 Mn. US$ in 2004-2005, whereas it
has exported 211.41 Mn. US$ valued leather and leather goods in 2003-04. The export target for
2005-06 is 235 Mn.US$ in which the export performance achieved in July2005-November2005
was 96.21Mn. US$. Total export of Bangladesh in 2004-05 was 8654.52Mn. US$, so the
contribution of the leather sector export to the total export was 2.55% in 2004-05. The main
exporting countries are Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Vietnam, Republic of Korea, Taiwan etc.
Raw hides used for producing wet-blue are mainly procured from local sources. Locally, raw hides
are collected mainly from leather depot located at Dhaka, Chittagong, Comilla, Kushtia, Natore and
Rangpur. Only an insignificant volume of camel hide is imported from external sources. South
Africa was the only source of camel hide imports in 2003. Wet blue, raw materials for producing
12
crust is mainly collected from local sources particularly from Dhaka. A small quantity of wet-blue
to prepare crust leather is collected from Chttagong and Jessor. Very insignificant volume of raw
materials is imported. In 2003, only about 1.5 percent of total raw materials (wet blue cow and
camel) were imported from South Africa, Australia, and Brazil. Crust leather used for producing
finished leather is also collected mainly from local sources. Only a very insignificant volume of
cow crust is imported to produce finished leather. In 2003, cow crust was imported from Australia
valued Tk.34 million.
There are hundreds of importers, merchants and suppliers are supplying chemicals required for the
whole leather industry. The processing of raw hides to finished leather mainly classified into three
different stages 1) Wet Blue, 2) Crust and 3) Finishing section.
In 2003, 3202MT (worth 8,46,23,000Tk) leather chemical used for wet blue leather stage in
Bangladesh. In which 1956MT (worth 2,06,85,000Tk) was local made and 1274MT (worth
6,39,38,000Tk) was imported. In the same year 901MT (worth 119041000Tk) chemical used in
crust stage, in which 885MT was foreign supply and 16MT was local supply. On the other hand 130
MT (worth taka 46468000) chemical used for finishing section, in which 120MT collected from
outside and 10MT was collected from local sources.
The major chemical suppliers are Germany, Holland, UK, Italy, and India. Recently local merchants
are also importing from China, Singapore etc.
In addition of finding out the whole scenario of the leather sector of Bangladesh, this study mainly
focused to identify the major chemical suppliers in the different stages of leather processing. To
find out the main chemicals required in various stages of finished leather production was also the
prime consideration of this study. The market share contributed by the suppliers in various stages
was the main finding of this report. Along with primary and secondary survey, in depth interview
and Expert opinions have been taken for the final modification and recommendation of the whole
research. Why the big suppliers are loosing their market and why small and new suppliers are doing
well and getting the market acceptability has also been discussed in this research material.

Chapter-One
Introduction
This internship report was prepared as a compulsory requirement for the MBA degree.
From the program office of the Institute of Business Administration (IBA), I was placed as
an intern in ACI trading limited. The project is titled “To study the current market scenario
and the future prospect of the leather chemical industry of Bangladesh”. The project was
assigned to me by my supervisor at ACI Trading Limited, Mr. Azmal Hossain, Executive
Director of ACI Trading Limited. It was overseen by my faculty advisor Mr. Mustaque
Ahmed, Associate Professor, Institute of Business Administration, University of Dhaka.
1.2. Objective
To understand the current market situation and the future business prospect of the leather
chemical industry of Bangladesh from the viewpoint of ACI Trading limited.
To achieve the broad objective the following specific objectives are required to be achieved.
1. Identify the major market players of leather chemicals (especially in value addition
section).
2. To analyze the ins and outs of the tannery industry of Bangladesh.
14
3. To compare the marketing strategies of all the major chemical suppliers in
Bangladesh and to find which marketing strategy the clients prefer.
4. To find out the proper marketing strategy for ACI Trading limited to increase their
market share in crust and finishing section.
This report is basically a requirement of ACI trading limited to understand the details of
tannery industry in Bangladesh. ACI trading limited is the agent of Stahl (Holland), a well
renowned chemical supplier in the world. From the ACI’s point of view, they want to know
their competitors and how they are marketing in Bangladesh.
To know the major leather chemical market players in Bangladesh, the tannery factories
and their leather technologists are the main focus of this research. All the organized bodies
related to leather sector such as Bangladesh Chemical Importers and Merchants
Association, Bangladesh Tanners Association, Bangladesh Finished Leather, Leather goods
and Footwear Exporters Association, Bangladesh Leather Manufacturers Association,
Bangladesh Leather Importers Association are the major considerations of this research.
Leather Sector Business Promotion Council (LSBPC) was the prime source of all research
papers necessary for this study.
1.4. Methodology
To find out the major leather chemical market players in Bangladesh, I basically separated
the respondents in three different divisions 1) Leather Technologists and employees of
various tanneries, 2) Members of chemical importers and merchants association and 3) The
leather chemical retailers or whole sellers.
15
In depth interview of the first two respondent divisions have been scrupulously scrutinized.
Both formal question answer session and informal discussions were the part of this
research. Primary interviews of the third respondent sections have been made, which was a
questionnaire based interview. Convenient sampling method was applied for selecting the
interviewees.
All the findings have been verified by numerous experts, leather technologists, and well
renowned leather chemical merchants of Bangladesh.
Although, there are not enough secondary materials available in Bangladesh, Leather
Sector Business Promotion Council (LSBPC) of Bangladesh has been repeatedly visited
and they helped me by providing all their necessary secondary materials.
1.7. Limitations
1. The main problem in dealing with leather sector is that, there are not enough
secondary research materials and published information available in
Bangladesh.
2. All the associations other than Bangladesh Finished Leather, Leather goods and
Footwear Exporters Association are not well organized to give the exact
information; most of them even don’t have their internal annual reports.
3. Since the whole leather sector of Bangladesh is shrinking day by day, the
researchers are not focusing this sector well enough comparing to the booming
sectors of Bangladesh like RMG.

Leather Industry of Bangladesh

3.0 Leather Industry Background
upper, bag, suitcase, belt, wallet and jacket. In the past, leather processing was done
The first tannery in Bangladesh territory was set up at Narayanganj by RP Saha in the
1940s. It was later shifted to Hazaribag area of Dhaka, which turned into a location that
now accommodates a large number of tannery units. During the period before Partition of
Bengal (1947), almost all the raw hides and skins available in East Bengal were exported to
west Bengal, particularly to Calcutta and processed there. In fact the tannery industry of
Bangladesh originated after its relocation from Narayanganj to Hazaribagh in Dhaka in
1951. At that time there were 54 tanneries in the country and out of those 30 belonged to
the Pakistani owners. Development of tannery industry in East Pakistan started after the
Partition with an influx of tanners displaced from India and subsequently, with the
establishment of subsidiaries of some companies of West Pakistan. The tanning industry in
East Pakistan and export of leather from the province were mainly in the hands of the non-
Bengali people. A few tanning units, however, belonged to Bengali entrepreneurs but they
were small and of cottage type and they used to process leather mainly for the domestic
markets. Most non-Bengali tanners processed wet-blue and sent the product to West
35
Pakistan where it was further processed and finished for producing different consumer
goods. Till 1960, tanneries of East Pakistan used to process raw hides and skins applying
salt and then drying them in the sun and the material thus developed was known as shaltu.
During the war of liberation in 1971 the non-Bengali tanners of Bangladesh left the country
abandoning about 30 tannery units owned by them. After the war, the new government of
Bangladesh vested the management of these units on a newly formed Tannery Corporation,
which was expected to convert them into finished leather manufacture units. Unfortunately,
the corporation did not serve the purpose because of lack of experience and other reasons
including corrupt practices. Later, the government relinquished the Tannery Corporation
and handed over the management of most of these tanneries to Bangladesh Chemical
Industries Corporation (BCIC). Three of them were given to Bangladesh freedom fighters
welfare trust. Both the authorities had miserably failed to manage the tanneries. In 1982,
the government transferred them to private entrepreneurs in pursuance of its general policy
of disinvestments, which had allowed some enterprising Bengalis with little or no
experience in the industry to start wet-blue production.
At present, the leather sector of Bangladesh has 220 processing units located at different
parts of the country (mainly in Dhaka) as follows: -
36
Only about 50% of the above units are well equipped for processing crust and finished leather. But only 28 tanneries are in operation,
among them 20 are operating in crust section and 8 are in finishing section.
According to the records of the Bangladesh Tanners Association, about 3,000 workers are
employed in the tanning industry. Besides, there are about 100 qualified technologists
including foreign nationals who are working in different tanneries. Total capital invested in
about Tk 1.2 billion. About 1,500 persons are involved in the process of collecting raw
hides and skins and making them available at tannery units. About 100 organizations
import chemicals for use in tannery industry. Some reputed tanneries of Bangladesh are
Dhaka Leather, Apex Tannery, Lexco, Karim Leather, Samata Tannery and Bay Tannery.

Chapter-Four
Production
The Leather sector plays a significant role in the economy of Bangladesh in terms of its
contribution to export and domestic market. Bangladesh currently produces about 20.0
million sq. meters of leather and leather goods per year. The total production of leather and
leather goods shows an increasing trend over the years. Beginning with the 1993/94, the
production increased from 14.60 in 1993/94 million sq. meters to 15.90 million sq. meters
in 1995/96. It fell to 11.95 million sq. meters in 1996/97. Since 1996/97, there has been a
steady increase in the production of leather and leather goods that reached 19.91 million sq.
meters in 2000/2001. The following table shows the production of leather and leather
goods in the country.
Leather sector is perceived to be one of the important economic sectors in Bangladesh. As a
single sector of the economy, the sector contributes modestly to the country’s GDP.
Contribution of leather sector (hide &skin, leather and leather goods, and footwear except
rubber) to GDP is 0.31 (at constant price) in FY 2003.
38
*Leather Sector Census Study, LSBPC, 2005
**Approximate Data from LSBPC
The quantum index of leather and leather goods production increased to 131 in 1998/99
compared to the base year (1988/89=100) and that of leather footwear production rose to
193 for the same period. It is therefore evident that leather is increasingly being used in the
production of footwear. The following table shows the trend of production of leather and
leather footwear during the 1990/91 through 1998/99 period.

Leather Export
5.01 Leather Export Performance of Bangladesh: The ever highest export
performance was achieved in 2000-2001 due to the mad cow disease in EU but after 11 th
September incident, the declining trend cannot be prevented due to the less value addition
capability and non-sustainable nature of the leather sector industry of Bangladesh. The
export performance of Bangladesh after 1999 is shown in table4.1. The Leather export is
almost 2.5 percent to the total export of Bangladesh. Table 4.2 shows how the percentage of
leather export to the total export is decreasing year after year.

Hong Kong, Korea Rep., Italy, Japan are the main export destinations of the leather goods
of Bangladesh. Though the Leather export performance of Bangladesh is decreasing day by
day but still some countries like China, Taiwan, Vietnam are showing their interest to
import more leather goods from Bangladesh. In comparison to India and Pakistan the
export performance of Bangladesh shows a very uncomfortable figure. The main reason for
that is the infrastructure of the sector. Although the RMG sector of Bangladesh is booming
even after the post MFA era, foreign investors are not showing interests to invest in the
leather sector of Bangladesh. Even the local investors are not interested to invest in leather
sector, though there are lots of places Bangladeshi investors can invest easily.

Raw Materials
From the survey data it is transpires that raw materials used by the leather sector firms are procured mainly from local market. Except for
an insignificant proportion, almost all raw materials of wet blue i.e. raw hides are collected from the local sources. Raw materials for
crust leather and finished leather are wet-blue and crust respectively. About 99 percent of the raw materials of wet blue, crust and
finished leather are sourced locally. Of the broad categories of leather firms, footwear sector used highest proportion of raw materials
(includes finished leather, lining leather sole, etc.) from external sources, which is 3.13 percent of the total used by the sector.

Leather processing units or tanneries produce wet-blue, crust, and finished leather. In producing wet-blue and crust, the firms use raw
hides and wet-blue as raw materials respectively. Crust leather is used as raw materials for producing finished leather.
Raw hides used for producing wet-blue are mainly procured from local sources. Locally,
raw hides are collected mainly from leather depot located at Dhaka, Chittagong, Comilla,
Kustia, Natore and Rangpur. Only an insignificant volume of camel hide is imported from
external sources. South Africa was the only source of camel hide imports in 2003.

Footwear manufacturing units imports comparatively greater volume of raw materials (as
compared to leather processing and leather footwear sector) from external sources.
Footwear manufacturing units imported over 3 percent of their total raw materials
amounted to about Tk. 38 million during January to December 2003. Sources for local raw
materials are mainly Dhaka and Chittagong. Of the external sources, finished leather is
mainly collected from Pakistan and China. Artificial sole is imported mainly from India,
Indonesia, China and Taiwan, and lining leather is collected mainly from China, Taiwan
54
and Pakistan. China, India and Italy are the major sources of in-sole leather. Some
footwear raw materials are also imported from Canada, France and Germany.

SWOT Analysis
7.1 Strengths
7.1.1 Strengths of the Firms: Leather Processing
The SWOT analysis is based on the opinions of the leather sector firms. The survey reveals
that ‘higher productive capacity’ is the main strength of the maximum number of firms of
the leather processing industry. Main strengths of the leather processing industry as
identified by the leather processing firms in the survey are as follows:

Production Competitive price Cheap Labour Market Better
capacity Information management
Major Strengths
57
With high installed capacity and better utilization of that capacity, firms can economize on the costs
and offer competitive price. It is recognized that the element of competitive price is related to
productivity and cost of production. Hence firms with better productive capacity can offer better
price to their clients. Generally, productivity of the big firms is expected to be higher than that of
smaller firms with low productive capacity. Availability of cheap labour is another common
advantage in the leather processing. This sector is relatively more labour-intensive than other two
sectors (footwear and leather goods).
As is leather-processing industry, ‘higher productive capacity’ is the main strength of the maximum
number of firms operating in the footwear industry. The major strengths of the firms as identified in
the survey (as opined by the firms) are as follows:

Major Strengths
Footwear firms appear to have emphasis on the quality of management of the firms. Adequate
supply of processed leather (from the leather processing firms) is the third most important factors
that determine the strength of the footwear firms. Quality control appears to have provided
competitive advantages to a good number of firms.
Better management quality, and quality control came up as the main strengths of the leather goods
producing firms. A list of major strengths of the footwear manufacturing firms as identified in the
survey (as opined by the firms) are presented in table 7.3.

information have also been identified by considerable percentages of firms as may be expected
from a hundred percent export oriented industry.
7.2 Weaknesses
Size of the firms and financial crisis are found to be the main weaknesses of the firms operating in
the leather processing industry. The major weaknesses of the firms as identified in the survey (as
opined by the firms) are as follows:

disturbances
Major Aspects
Practically, ‘disruption of electricity’ and ‘hartal strike etc.’ are very common aspects of
threats facing by the industry sector of the country in general. Inadequate infrastructural
facilities like insufficient supply of electricity and shortage of water supply affect optimum
capacity utilization, volume of production, and destroy cost advantage. Such problem is
particularly threatening in an atmosphere of growing global competition. Moreover,
environment consciousness in importing countries mainly in the developed world is the
cause of concern for the exporting countries like Bangladesh where environmental issues
are not strongly addressed both in firm and policy level. Moreover, Firms also do not get
sufficient trained people.
As in leather processing sector, ‘disruption of electricity’ is found to be the main aspect of threat to
the footwear firms of Bangladesh. The major aspects of threats of the footwear firms as identified in

Chapter Eleven
92
Since on this small industry more than fifty chemical merchants and organizations are
operating, price; marketing policy; relationship marketing; technical support by the
chemical suppliers; are scrupulously observed by the tanneries of Bangladesh.
Ten years back BASF and some other big chemical suppliers led the leather chemical
market single handedly and played monopoly game with their consumers. At that time
they took high price from the buyers. But now there are numerous competitors available
on the market. Now, buyers can choose their own sellers since they have their
alternatives. In the description bellow I tried to find out some basic marketing factors of
leather chemical industry.
1. Technical Support: The leather chemical marketing and selling requires reliable
technical services. Suppliers can sell their product only then, when they can make it sure
to the buyers that the chemical is really useful for fulfilling buyer’s special purpose. So, if
you don’t have good and skilled technical sales person you are no way near in the
competition.
2. Price: Price has always been a huge factor in leather chemical industry. Big suppliers
are getting away from the good notice of their clients because of their high price
comparing to their Chinese and Indian counter products. Freight cost, taxes, currency
exchange rate have always played a big factor for the ultimate price of the chemical.
Most of the Chinese and Indian products are proved to be less costly than most of the
well-known German, Dutch and English chemicals.
3. Relationship Marketing: Since the whole leather chemical market is very narrow,
each and every one knows one another very well. But then again one has to maintain a
very good relationship with the buyers. Most of the buyers want to purchase their
chemicals on credit basis. So, you have no option but to sell your product on credit.
Since, chemical selling requires post purchase technical support, one has to make it sure
their chemical is doing better than competitors one in each and every aspect.
93
Most of the buyers are facing difficulties in getting loan from the bank to purchase their
raw materials. A supplier can also make a link with the banks to give loan to the tanneries
for buying chemicals form them.
4. Lead Time:
Some times buyers have to buy a bulk amount of chemicals for their production. In most
of the cases suppliers are not able to supply beyond a certain amount of chemicals, then
they require importing chemicals from the manufacturing agents. Lead-time plays a big
role in that particular case. If a supplier cannot maintain its declared time of supply,
obviously the buyers will be dissatisfied.
5. Quality:
No matter in which way you have sold your chemical to the buyers you have to make it
sure that you are selling a quality product. You have to remember that it is not the one
time selling policy you want to follow. Only, the good quality product can ensure long
term selling policy.
1. Price: Most of the Stahl products are costlier than their competitor’s counter
products. Although Stahl has very good brand image in Finishing chemical
section but high price is one of the factor for which Stahl is loosing market
towards the Indian and Chinese products. Even in some cases their chemicals are
costlier than BASF, ALPA and TFL’s chemicals. Actually, Stahl has to wait for
their shipment from Holland. Fluctuations of Euro play an important part to
fluctuate the price of the chemicals. ALPA (The market leader in finishing Leather
chemical section) arranges shipment from two sources, one is India and another
94
one is Italy. ALPA gives emphasize to the customers choice from where they want
to get the shipment. In case of shipment from India, ALPA offers lower price in
US Dollar. The other benefit, they can avoid the risk of frequent Euro fluctuation.
Not only ALPA but also other competitors are practicing this strategy as well
(BASF India, TFL Sri Lanka, BUCK MAN Singapore, etc).
In the Leather chemical division there are only two persons working, a) Senior
Technical Sales Officer, b) Technical Sales officer. There was a manager in this
division, but after his death this position is vacant now.
Executive Director
ACI Trading Limited
95
With the vacation of the mangers post, both the sales officers have to report directly to the
Executive Director. Insufficient personnel in the leather chemical division and
vertical hierarchy seem to be a noticeable problem for ACI Trading Ltd. ALPA,
the market leader in leather finishing, has eight technologists working for
Bangladesh market (Three Bangladeshi Technical persons, two Indian
technologists, three Technologists from ALPA, Italy). In comparison to that Stahl
has only two technical sales officers of Bangladesh and one Pakistani technologist.
Training of these technical personnel is very necessary. ALPA, Italy arranged regular
training for agent technologist and train up on latest development that helps to
promote Chemicals to tanneries. Stahl and ACI should arrange training on
regular basis.
Job placement is another key strategy taken by the market leader ALPA. They appointed
technicians from India and occupied most of the finishing units in Bangladesh.
These technologists are working as shadow technologists of ALPA and at the same
time Tannery management also pleased for that and finally ALPA gets good
business.
