The Tardoire's leather factory takes root in the local community | Hermès Footsteps Across The World

The River Tardoire meanders through the fields where Limousine cows graze lazily. Montbron, in its picture postcard landscape, was sliding into oblivion.  The opening of the Hermès leather workshop created over 250 jobs that contributed to the regeneration of this town in the Charentes area of southwestern France.  Families are moving back in, a nursery class has reopened, and community activities resumed. A renaissance.  #HermesFootsteps Discover Hermès values and relationship with sustainable development on our website: https://h.fr/FootstepsacrosstheworldM... Watch the entire Hermès Footsteps across the world documentary series:    • HERMÈS FOOTSTEPS ACROSS THE WORLD   *** Welcome to the world of Hermès: In 1837, Thierry Hermès opened his workshop making the finest quality harnesses and saddles in the heart of Paris. Today, Hermès is still a family company whose craftspeople make, often by hand and always with love , bags and belts, diaries and dishes, scarves and shoes, perfumes and purses, ties and travelling furniture, as well as gloves, hats, watches, jewellery and clothes.
