At the Jacksons, we believe that employment leads to independence, empowerment and status. This is why, for more that twelve years now, Louise and her team have been working relentlessly, designing products with a forever concern for our artisans and environment. Our mission and ambitions always have our friends and the planet at hear and we are striving to prove that mindful fashion is possible.
While we started this incredible adventure with a 100 women, we can now proudly say that The Jacksons provides 1,500 artisans with work all year round. A further 4,000 people are given employment opportunities through the production of jute cord, bead work and embroidery. In this partnership, artisans are being paid directly, which gives them more freedom / choices regarding their daily lives and the future.
The majority of The Jacksons products are made from jute - a plant that is completely rain fed and requires no additional energy. Making jute products virtually carbon free. The jute plants starts absorbing carbon after only a few weeks of growth, this acting as a carbon sink.
