Like many other industrial clusters in Zhejiang, the development of leather in Haining begins with family workshops.

In 1926, in the town of Kashi, Haining, workers in small workshops, shanty towns, and rough open-air sites, using scissors, sticks, water tanks and other production tools, made of leather with hydrochloric acid nitre nitrate, formed a certain scale leather workshop.

In 1926, the Haining tannery was set up. It is the first enterprise with modern industrial significance in the history of leather industry in Haining.

Until 1956, a large number of small leather workshops jointly established a local state-run Haining tannery, which belonged to the provincial leather and plastics company of the second light Hall of the province.

In 70s, Haining leather industry welcomed a turning point.

In 1973, the tannery invented the pigskin suede garment leather, and received the attention of the Ministry of light industry of China. Then, the 1 city fair of 8 provinces in Haining was held to promote the production technology and experience of pigskin suede garment leather, which is a rare national conference since the founding of Haining.

In 1977, the state invested tens of millions of yuan to carry out large-scale technological pformation of the plant. In August 1979, it invested about 3000000 yuan to build the first batch of leather sewage treatment stations in the country.
