In the company’s own words
Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (Nasdaq Capital Market: TLF) operates as one of the world's largest specialty retailers of leather and leathercraft-related items.

The company operates a retail fleet of 101 stores across North America and Europe, comprising 91 locations in the United States, nine in Canada, and one in Spain. Tandy Leather generates revenue through three primary channels: company-leased retail stores, global e-commerce platforms, and a commercial division serving business customers. The company produces approximately ten percent of its products internally, including leather lace, cut leather pieces, do-it-yourself kits, and Craftaid tooling templates at its Benbrook, Texas production facility. Additional production services for commercial customers include cutting, splitting, and assembly operations.
The company's product portfolio spans multiple categories including leather, hand tools, hardware, kits, liquids, machines, and supplies distributed under several brands including Tandy Leather, Eco-Flo, Craftool, CraftoolPro, Dr. Jackson's, and the premium TandyPro line.
