From the Heart of Fez: Unveiling the Rich Heritage of Flydigito’s Moroccan Leather
The Enduring Appeal of Traditional Leather
In a world with many factory-produced items, the appeal of leather with its distinct texture and strength remains significant. At Flydigito, our story is connected to a history of craftsmanship. We invite you on a journey that begins in the city of Fez, Morocco, a location known for leather work, and leads to the leather goods that reach our customers in the UK.
Fez: A Center of Leather Craftsmanship
Fez, located in Morocco, is recognized as a central place for leather production. Its history includes the craft of tanning and leatherworking, a practice maintained through many years. The Chouara Tannery stands as a notable example of these methods. Here, people use techniques that have been around for a long time, turning hides into leather using dyes and established processes. This heritage means that leather from Fez reflects a history of work and a focus on the craft.
The Bergaouy Family: A History of Craft
Our founder, Marouane Bergaouy, has a connection to Fez and its leather industry. Growing up near the Chouara Tannery, Marouane learned about the craft. For the Bergaouy family, leather is a part of their history. This background and experience are the foundation of Flydigito, leading to a focus on the standards of the products we provide.
