Programmes Lead at My World of Bags, Sinmi Olayebi, has said that the Kafawa Training Program has been designed to help realise the predicted value of the Nigerian leather industry.

According to her, based on expert assessments and reports, the leather industry in Nigeria could generate at least $1bn in revenue by 2025.

Speaking after the recently concluded pilot edition of the Kafawa training program – developed in partnership with MasterCard Foundation – Sinmi said that the programme had recently trained over 300 youths in industrial skills that could help to simultaneously impact the leather space and cushion the nation’s present economic austerity.

According to her, with Nigeria being one of the biggest producers and exporters of raw leather materials and reportedly one of the highest producers of leather and finished leather products in Africa, the industry was estimated to generate over $1bn by 2025.
