About UMOJA

Umòja, which means "unity" in Swahili, is an approach that combines artisanal know-how and textile innovation to try to provide green alternatives in a very opaque textile industry. Seeking solutions and bridging the gap between skills. Our goal: to ensure artisanal production that respects our environment. We develop products by considering all stages. From the design of raw materials to the end of life of the finished product, we collaborate with nature to follow its logic. Deconstruct without destroying to offer positive production alternatives. For us, a transparent project is above all about taking into account all the partners involved in the production process. By working in a direct circuit, we go to the source, in contact with farmers, weavers, and workers to control the origin of each material used. Working in a short circuit allows us to have complete transparency on all the materials used in the production process.Read their story
