HISTORY
Skotan Tannery was established in1859 by David Spitzer who came to Skoczów from Czechia. In the beginning it was a tanning workshop producing leathers of different kinds for shoe and furniture industries. It had quickly grown into a regular tannery. In 1928 a company called „Spitzer- Sinajberger” was founded which led to further development of the tannery. In 1906 the company employed almost 40 workers and produced around 160 pieces of bovine leathers a day.
After the Second World War the tannery was nationalized and became part of PZPS Chełmek. It regained its independency in 1989 and was traded, since 1999, on Warsaw Stock Exchange. In 2001 the tannery was bought by a private investor. In 2005 Skotan Tannery Ltd. was separated from Skotan S.A.
