Why Bangladesh
Jute: The Golden Fiber
Jute, often referred to as the “golden fiber,” holds a special place in the cultural and economic history of Bangladesh. This versatile and sustainable fiber is derived from plants and has been cultivated in the country for generations. Known for its golden hue and unmatched utility, jute is biodegradable, eco-friendly, and plays a vital role in reducing reliance on synthetic materials. It is used to create a wide range of products, from bags, rugs, and mats to decorative items and industrial materials. At Shafollo, we harness the potential of jute to craft unique and high-quality handicrafts that reflect the artistry and tradition of Bangladesh while promoting sustainability.
How Shafollo Empowers Women
Our Brand Shafollo is committed to fostering women empowerment by providing opportunities for women artisans across Bangladesh. Our organization works closely with disadvantaged women, offering them skill-development training and fair wages to help them achieve financial independence. Many of these women are the backbone of their families, and through their craftsmanship, they not only support their households but also contribute to the local economy. We prioritize gender equality, ensuring that women artisans are paid fairly and are given leadership opportunities in our manufacturing and production processes. By empowering women, Shafollo helps build a more inclusive and equitable community, one handcrafted product at a time.
