About our Fair trade supplier Joyya...

Prudence's travel pouches are made by Joyya who run a fair-trade co-operative for around 250 women living in West Bengal. A fair wage and eco-friendly materials are not the only reason I wanted to work with them. Joyya is operates as a women's cooperative.

This is what the team at Joyya have to say about the initiative in their words:

“ Everyone benefits when there's a little more good in the world. We think the best place to start spreading good is where we work, live, and play.That's why our mission at Joyya and through our nonprofit — Joyya Collective — is to squash the norms. To bet on the battlers — those who face adversity with courage. And to build authentic life changing relationships, one neighbourhood at a time.”

Here's a picture they sent to me during the production process. They make such beautiful things! I hope you think so too!
