National Union of the Footwear, Leather and Allied Trades

The National Union of the Footwear, Leather and Allied Trades (NUFLAT) was a trade union in the United Kingdom which existed between 1971 and 1991.

It represented workers in the leather and footwear industry.

[3] Although initially a strong union with many closed shop agreements,[4] its membership fell rapidly due to large-scale redundancies in the industry.

[5] In 1991, it merged with the National Union of Hosiery and Knitwear Workers to form the National Union of Knitwear, Footwear and Apparel Trades.

The union sponsored a Labour Party candidate in several Parliamentary elections.
