Transparent production

Transparent Production at Gusti Leder - what does that mean?

At Gusti Leather, alongside high product quality, one thing is especially important: Transparency! From the very beginning, it was important to our CEO Christian Pietsch to approach the topics of leather and production in India with realism and honesty.

Showing customers as openly as possible how our products are made has become one of our company's greatest strengths.

Our Company Philosophy

Rightly so, the conditions of the rearing and slaughtering of animals for the leather industry, as well as the production and working conditions in India, have been polarizing. In the consumer-oriented fashion world, such issues quickly recede into the background.

At Gusti Leather we take a clear stand: We are committed to animal welfare, fair working conditions, and the observance of human rights.

Through regular inspections of our manufacturers and comprehensive training of our employees, we ensure that we carry out our work responsibly. Honesty and transparency create a strong relationship of trust with our customers.

Creating Transparency: From Theory to Practice

A cooperative and trusting collaboration with our manufacturers is particularly important to us – it is based on long-standing business relationships. This ensures that our requirements for fair working conditions and responsible production are met.
