The mam solutions of the problems in this segment are:
quality of leather raw materials;

Currently, the production of leather industry both in Russia and in Mongolia is slowly but steadily growing. Prospective directions of development of this segment are:
the ecologization of leather production and the use of chromium-free tanning methods;
the ecologization of leather production and the use of chromium-free tanning methods;
The main solutions of the problems in this segment are:
