Welcome to Ambur Economic Development Organisation

Ambur and Vaniyambadi in Tamilnadu is a major leather cluster represented by AMBURTEC/VANITEC contributing a significant share in the country’s leather export but severely handicapped by poor infrastructure, particularly waste water disposal and product development and marketing facilities. In order to maintain its primacy as the largest producer of leather goods and products, and to emerge as an international destination for leather industry, both Amburtec and Vanitec joined and formed the Ambur Economic Development Organization (AEDOL) on 23.07.2001, to take advantage of the Schemes being implemented by the Department Industrial policy &Promotion, GOI., for integrated infrastructure development programme to enable the clusters meet their aim of Zero Liquid Discharge by recycling the treated water, and all other existing environmental standards.
