LOCAL FIRM JOINS LEATHER GROUP

Warehouse of Leathers, located in West Park Mall in Cape Girardeau, has joined the Leather Apparel Association, Inc.

Mike Edwards and Judi Lamar, owners of the firm, said the Leather Apparel Association was founded just over a year ago, and is comprised of a network of leather retailers, manufacturers, tanners, cleaners, and suppliers in the leather apparel industry.

The new association provides year-round public relations, marketing services, industry guidelines and other information within the industry.

"All of the merchandise at Warehouse of Leather displays the association's tag with the industry guidelines for proper leather garment care," said Edwards. "This is just one of the many ways we are striving to provide our customers with the finest service available in the leather apparel industry."

Warehouse of Leathers specializes in leather apparel and accessories for both men and women of all ages.
