Billy Tannery

Due to decades of decline in the British leather industry, many thousands of goatskins leftover from the food industry were being thrown away or burned each year. Believing there must be a better way, we set out to find a solution. So in 2016, after unearthing centuries of local leather knowledge, we transformed a farm building in the Midlands into our own small-batch tannery - the first of its kind to be built in this country. Jack joined forces with creative director and childhood friend Rory Harker to launch the brand and initial range of British-made leather goods in 2017. Today our small team includes our tannery trainee, Pieter, design and project manager Martha, commercial lead Jonny and customer supremo, Matt.
