ICFA is a not-for-profit association that was created to develop and improve crocodilian farming practices and unites stakeholders across the crocodilian leather supply chain. A decade later, the community toasted to the advances made in conservation, sustainability, traceability and responsible trade in crocodilian leather. Over the past ten years, ICFA has united farmers, tanners, manufacturers, brands, scientists, conservationists, and luxury brands from around the world to demonstrate how sustainable use benefits wildlife, wetlands, rural communities, and the global luxury industry.
