Entrepreneur

About Me

My names are George Ngugi, am born again, married to one wife Elizabeth. I live in Omega Saika Nairobi along Kangundo road.
I am co founder of Soft leather company that deals with leather processing.
The company is young and growing with promise of expansion given the market availability across east Africa and across the region.
We get our products from nearby slaughter houses and market is readily available.
I have years of experience in leather processing having worked in various companies based in Nairobi Kenya.

My Business

The potential for growth in Kenya’s leather industry is considerable. The government estimates that value addition could more than double the current earnings to ksh 9 billion. The country has in recent years produced over two million hides (mainly cattle, with some camel) and around four million skins (goats and sheep).
The products in this sector include raw hides and skins; chrome tanned hides; wet blue skins and hides; shoes and she uppers/ footwear; finished leather; semi-finished leather products and PVC coated fabrics.
We are therefore involved in leather processing which forms the basics of our revenue.
