our projects in africa

The cornerstone of our business is trade not aid. After all you can't eat money or make bracelets from banknotes. made's main objective is to train local artisans, improve their working conditions and set them up in business by providing tools and materials.

We also make certain workers receive a decent living wage from their businesses through the orders we place with them. This extra income can drastically improve lives and ultimately rejuvenate entire communities.

We currently work with five different projects in and around Nairobi, some already established, others set up from scratch by made. All have a story to tell.
