For leather and footwear exhibitors

What a leather and footwear website should show

Buyers of leather and footwear want to check materials, quantities and compliance papers on your site before they visit, and find the right contact quickly afterwards.

Product group pages

Give each product group, such as shoes, bags or leather by the hide, its own page with clear photos, material details and minimum order quantities, so buyers can check you before the fair.

Certificates and test reports

Make sure certificates and test reports that tannery and brand buyers ask for, such as chemical compliance or leather origin, are easy to find and download on your site.

Stand QR code

Print a QR code on your stand that opens a fair page with your current collection and sample request, and test that it loads quickly on a phone with weak signal.

Follow up with buyers

Scan the business cards of sourcing agents and retail buyers at the stand, note which styles or materials they asked about, and send each of them a follow-up within days.
