Words from David:
Being nominated to the Supervisory Council is an exciting opportunity and I look forward to assisting the team in continuing the remarkable success story of Leather Naturally. There is no question that the accomplishments made thus far, are providing solid building blocks for the future. Having a globally unified voice for leather is a much-needed platform to address our future challenges. Leather is unique, it has no equivalent, it is often imitated but never duplicated. I am excited about the prospect of broadening our base and expanding our reach.
