The Uzwelo Bags initiative, spearheaded by Expand a Sign, sees thousands of metres of their waste textile fabric donated to teams of sewers from underprivileged backgrounds to make South African bags, and earn a living.

KAMERS/Makers ordered 10 000 Uzwelo shopper bags per show.

“Visitors will receive one of our new #KAMERS2017 shopper bags, and a magazine, with their show ticket. We are extremely proud to support the talented team of Uzwelo sewers at LIV Village, and strongly believe in the sustainability and entrepreneurial ethos of this wonderful initiative,” says Magdel Kemp, KAMERS/Makers co-owner and COO.

Uzwelo COO, Tanya Bailey, concludes, “We are so grateful for the support, and look forward to participating in the upcoming KAMERS/Makers autumn shows. A comprehensive selection of the Uzwelo Bags range will be available at the Uzwelo stand at St. John’s College, Johanessburg, from Wednesday, 26 April to Sunday, 30 April, and at the Castle of Good Hope, Cape Town from Wednesday, 24 May to Sunday, 28 May.”
