Several factories for manufacturing clothing and consumer products from leather were located in Öje in the 20th century. The leather industry declined and the manufacturers were closed in the 1970s and 1980s. A museum displaying and commemorating the leather manufacturing industry is located in one of the former factory buildings in Öje.[2]
