History
Founded in 1974 by Ümit Zaim and Zerrin Zaim, Derimod played a pivotal role in industrializing leather fashion in Turkey. It transitioned from a manufacturing focus to a retail-oriented model, opening a store in Beverly Hills in 1982 to establish an international presence. Historically, the brand is significant for being the first Turkish company to combine leather production with modern marketing and global retail expansion, influencing the country's leather export sector.
