Global Footwear Leathercraft Industries Pvt Ltd

Over at 6 West Range in Kolkata, that’s where you’ll find our workshop. We are Global Footwear Leathercraft Industries. The area has a long history with leather, and we are just another part of that tradition. When you walk into our space, the first thing you notice is the smell of raw hide and polish. It’s a bit of a messy place, honestly. We have scraps of leather on the floor and heavy machines that make a lot of noise when they’re running. We don't have a fancy showroom. We just have our workbenches and the tools we’ve used for years. Most of the people working here have been doing this since they were young. We make shoes and other leather goods by hand, mostly. It’s a slow process, and we don't try to rush it. Kolkata is a city that appreciates things made with care, and West Range is a good spot for us to keep that going. The building is old, with high ceilings and big windows that let in some light, but it gets pretty humid in the monsoon. We don't have a marketing team or a sales department. We just make the footwear and people come to us when they need something durable. It’s hard work on the hands, but it’s what we know how to do. We’ve been at this 700 017 address for a long time and our neighbors know the sound of our hammers.
