Mareeba croc farmer in legal skin stoush with luxury Italian leathergoods company
A MAREEBA crocodile farmer has claimed he is owed more than $1.8 million by a luxury Italian leathergoods company after a deal went sour and left him with 1200 extra crocs.
Melaleuca Crocodile Farm co-owner Juergen Arnold has lodged documents in the Cairns Supreme Court claiming Italven Pelli has defaulted on a contract they signed in 2016 which would see his company NB2 Farming supplying them 2000 skins per year until 2025.
In the documents obtained by the Cairns Post, Mr Jueregen said NB2 had previously supplied to luxury brand Hermes.
