Different people
livING better together

The sewing of our products has been executed with care and attention to detail by the refugees of the sewing cooperative Refumade, aimed at refugees and asylum seekers living in Cyprus to learn skills and help rebuild their lives.
Lots of different people live together in Cyprus and we believe that enhancing this diversity is pivotal to the evolution of modern society.
We hope that our products will encourage mutual help among the different people living in Cyprus and make our customers feel closer to them.
