The Amphitheatre
Our Amphitheatre
Our Amphitheatre symbolises our deep commitment to community, from our factory team to society. Through OUR LEATHERPRINT, we recognise society's importance. In South Africa, where 32.6% struggle with unemployment, urgent transformative initiatives are needed, especially with youth unemployment at 46.3%. With 28 million relying on social relief grants, poverty is exacerbated by policies, corruption, and mismanagement. To uplift our community, Mossop Leathers has identified five robust initiatives for social change.
