Our story
BDM Global was founded in Saint-Hyacinthe by businessman Benjamin Barrette in 2006. Benjamin Barrette has a long history in meat and leather sales, with experience in each stage of the leather industry, from raising animals to acting as a dealer, including feed, slaughter and hide curing.
When he created BDM Global, Barrette decided to use his experiences to help tanners, developing a training, feedback and quality control process to be used in each step of the process, from the farm to the processing plant. From its location in Saint-Hyacinthe, Eastern Canada’s agricultural capital, BDM Global managed to form close relationships with its farmers.
For more than a decade, BDM Global has continued to improve its practices and products, with our clients’ total satisfaction in mind.
On the farm
Hide quality is largely dependent on the conditions in which animals are raised. BDM Global knows the farmers it works with and visits their farms to help them improve their practices and maximize hide quality, meaning hides come with a minimum of inherent flaws.
At the abattoir
BDM Global provides feedback to abattoir after every delivery, keeping them informed about the quality of their products. We also check in with them regularly to provide support as they implement our recommendations Their techniques improve—you receive smoother, more uniform hides.
