La Tannerie will be on vacation for three weeks starting this evening. A precious time to recharge everyone’s batteries. It’s a good thing the sun is finally back in the Vosges. We’ll be closed until August 19. Don’t hesitate to send us e-mails, which we’ll take the time to look at when you return.
Have a great summer!

Partner, colleague, trainer, Dominique Galmiche will be retiring on Friday, after 44 years working at La Tannerie. He has spent his entire career with the company, from the age of 16 to 60.

We all enjoyed working with Dominique and wish him all the best in his retirement!
