One leather day for the Buteni gymnasium

On 16 November 2016, Mr Gheorghe Vesa, owner of A&A VESA company (APPBR member) and Mr Gheorghe Bostaca (APPBR) visited the Buteni Gymnasium in Sebis (Arad county). This is a state school with grades from 1st to 8th.

During the visit, they had a meeting with pupils in the final study year (8th grade) to whom they presented the aim of the visit and the “Leather is my Job” initiative using the project leaflets (RO and EN).

After this short meeting and presentation, the pupils and their teacher were invited for an Open doors event in the A&A VESA company.

Children were very impressed by the technologies and processes which transform a raw skin into a spectacular finished skin/fur and finally in different apparel articles. They asked the company owner and the workers a lot of questions regarding the process, working conditions and equipment used. The young visitors expressed their real interest in becoming trainees and future workers in this challenging sector.
