We make fair trade products from waste

The Original

 

In 2012, we had the idea to upcycle an old rice bag, to tackle two issues:

​

1) growing amount of plastic waste

2) lack of  job opportunities for women

​

​

Today, we offer a wide range of bags and accessories, all made with waste materials found on Sri Lanka's coastline.

Upcycled Waste Materials

Every Rice & Carry bag tells its own story. 

​

Maybe it was made from an old rice bag found on a buzzing Sri Lankan market. Or from a turmeric spice sack from India. 

​

All materials are carefully cleaned before being upcycled.

Handmade By Women

All products are unique and handmade by one of our female artisans.

​

We train women from rural villages to become skilled seamstresses. Of course we pay them fair wages, according to fair trade principles.
