Unlike the dozens of sweat shops all around Los Angeles, we comply with all Federal, State and City Regulations and Permits. Our front door is always open and from Workers compensation to Health licenses, everything is visible right from the entrance. We pay and treat our workers well and our clients can feel good about doing business with us.

Self sufficient. Self financed. We didn't use any bankers or private equity money to grow to where we are today. We used our own and no one tells us how to run this business.
Today ORTU Leather employs 50+ craftsmen specialized in the art of making leather garments and accessories on 4 floors spread across 2 buildings.
