dc.description.abstractThis document is a response to the 19th Summit of EAC Heads of State, held in 2018, concerning the promotion of the cotton, textile, apparel and leather industries in the region, with a view to making the region more competitive and creating jobs, ‘decided to prioritize the development of a competitive domestic textile and leather sectors to provide affordable, new and quality options of clothing and leather products to EAC citizens’. The Summit further directed the Council to ‘implement this decision and put in place a mechanism that supports textile and leather manufacturing in EAC”. The Leather and Leather Products Strategy, is premised on collective commitment and strategic cooperation among Partner States, as well as between the public and private sector, to collectively address governance issues, regulatory, market and information challenges which reduce incentives for private investment along the leather and leather products value chain. Implementing the Strategy holds the key to averting the risks associated with a mono-product driven export industry, with a focus on retaining 85 percent of the value that is presently leaked through the export of wet blue.
