The initiative of a fully equipped tannery zone is a significant leap forward by Sialkot Tannery Association to modernize the local leather industry in an environment friendly way. Industrialists of Sialkot have already proved to be torch bearers of corporate social responsible for Pakistan by taking the bold initiatives in infrastructure development and social services.

After completion this will significantly relieve the local population of the water contamination and other environmental issues as well as introduce further development of leather industry in Sialkot.
