The pictures were taken in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. It is a popular industry here. Old or 2nd grade leather is bought for very little money to be reused. The leather is first dried in the sun using various dyes and then prepared for use. Here the workers are paid less than £4 for their labour. At the end of the process, they make new leather into shoe soles, belts, gloves for construction workers, car seats, winter coats, bags and other leather products which are sold in the local market as well as internationally in different countries. Bangladesh’s fourth largest export product is leather and leather products.
