ARTISAN TESTIMONIALS

“I am a mother of two boys and one girl. During MIMCO INDI-GO-GO order both of my boys were sick and in need of better medical attention. Even though I had not yet received the income, I was confident to borrow money which I used to pay their hospital bills”

Martha Kimani, 40 years old

 

“I am a foster mother of one. I worked on MIMCO INDI-GO-GO as a stitcher. I used the tie and dyed leather imported from Ethiopia in construction of the bags. Given that the material was not locally sourced I strived to make quality perfect bags. I gained more experience working on the order.” 

Mary Joseph, 35 years old

 

“I am a mother of two. I worked on MIMCO INDI-GO-GO order as a beader. The order came at a time my family was experiencing some economic challenges. I used the income from the order to buy enough of food stuff in preparation for scarcity usually experienced during elections (early August 2017)”

People first. Fair supply chain. Living wages. Dignified working conditions.

We carry out a Social Impact Report for every collection made in collaboration with the Ethical Fashion Initiative. 

Social workers are embedded in the communities in which we work, and closely monitor the implementation of our code of conduct. 

Extensive data is collected to carefully measure the impact of each order, to ensure that the work is positively impacting the lives of the artisans and that our projects are working towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
