South African company whose share price increased by 1,700% in 15 months

Leatt Corporation is a great South African business success story. It is a global powerhouse in protective wearables and has seen strong growth over the last year.

The Leatt story began in 2001 when Dr Christopher Leatt witnessed the death of a fellow motorcycle rider.

Good for them. Solid products. Owned a Leatt neck brace. Broke my back doing Enduro, luckily not my neck

Only ever bought their knee pads but every product they make seems to be very well and thoughtfully made. They’ve done well to establish themselves as a premium product in a competitive market.

It trades OTC though?

I read it and thought wow that's amazing I wonder if its on the JSE --- Oh the share price is in USD, nice.

Pro tip, don't list your SA company on the JSE if you want to make it big internationally, I guess?

Really happy for them all the same!
