Consequently, the leather industry reached another milestone together with the latest crisis that affected the entire world. Especially the countries that experience the distress of being depended to a single market such as Turkey endeavor for opening to more dynamic markets and also for increasing their production and promotion activities in the targeted markets. They have begun to attach more importance to branding and promotion issues. It is a fact that the efforts realized in this regard are mostly towards catching up with innovations and cutting edge technologies and in this context, e-commerce entrepreneurship is dwelled upon.The issues such as the transformation of the leather businesses to automation during the production process, and migration of certain company and product promotions to internet via computers also pave the way for e-commerce ventures.
