Muirhead returns to pre-pandemic lead times
Muirhead has returned to a six-week lead time, last seen before the pandemic
Muirhead has announced it has returned to its pre-pandemic manufacturing lead time of six weeks.
“While lengthy and fragmented supply chains continue to pose challenges to many across the industry, we’re proud to be able to guarantee our usual six-week lead time to customers once again,” said Myles Hobbs, Head of Aviation EMEA and The Americas at Muirhead in an August 3 press release.
“Thanks to a continued investment in our manufacturing processes and operational excellence, our business is now more streamlined, efficient, and agile. We’re confident that Muirhead’s direct sourcing and unique end-to-end control of the supply chain will continue to set us apart, enabling us to deliver the highest quality, most consistent leather to the aviation and passenger transport industries,” he added.
Muirhead sources 99 percent of its hides from the UK and Ireland and works closely with local cattle farmers and abattoirs that operate with the highest possible standards. Each hide is tanned in the company’s family-owned tannery and is finished on site.
Besides a guaranteed start-to-finish lead time, the leather manufacturer also offers a seven-year warranty.
