Our Mission Statement:

Home PageShakoshi ImportMission Statement

Shakoshi enables the members of the sewing associations involved to be their own solution. Crafting Shakoshi gives each tailor a wholesome way to provide food, shelter, education and a future for their families. The bags are sewn in primitive conditions on treadle sewing machines. This vocation is a miraculous step up from all other options available to them.

The bridge that makes possible the purchase of beautifulĀ andĀ useful Shakoshi bags is Shakoshi Import.

Through the distribution of Shakoshi, we are dedicated to:

  • Creating a viable market for the Shakoshi label.
  • Building opportunity for skills and successful business development in the DRCongo, which leads to hope, dignity and the rewards of their labor.

Shakoshi is changing lives!

Please join us in growing Shakoshi by selling their original bags.
