Pingree Detroit employing veterans to make leather goods

(WJBK) - Pingree Detroit is the only leather and accessories company in Detroit where you can buy items made by veterans made in the Motor City.

It was a simple idea that led to a startup back in 2015. Now, the company takes unused leather from the auto industry to make boots and other goods. 

Co-founders Jarret Schlaff and Kaleb Fulk joined us on Live at Eleven to tell us more about Pingree Detroit and their mission and their products. You can hear from them in the video player above.
