Iraq's leather industry decline
The livestock hide crisis in Iraq has worsened, transforming from a valuable national resource into an environmental burden due to declining domestic demand and the collapse of the tanning and leather industries. Approximately 100 factories have closed, and commercial activity has come to a complete halt. Despite Iraqi hides still being ranked among the best worldwide in terms of quality and durability, the influx of cheaper imported products and rising production costs have disrupted the industry, resulting in professional losses, the decline of related traditional crafts, and a shift toward reliance on imported cow hides and raw materials.
