AAKS
Welcome to AAKS - a one-of-a-kind African fashion brand, founded in 2014, that beautifully weaves the rich heritage of Ghanaian craftsmanship into sustainable raffia bags, celebrating traditional design with ethical production. The founder, Akosua Afriyie-Kumi, made it her mission to introduce the world to Ghana's beloved weaving techniques while creating sustainable job opportunities within Africa. AAKS is committed to raising awareness of ethical production practices and promoting sustainable consumption in the fashion industry.
The brand’s sustainable vision drives them to constantly explore the question, "How do we create the most beautiful and desirable products with the least impact on our environment?” AAKS is on a continuous journey of learning, while striving to minimize their environmental footprint by offering exquisite handcrafted products that captivate with their high levels of detail, quality craftsmanship, and vibrant colors.
The raffia used in AAKS bags is carefully harvested using sustainable practices that protect the environment and support local ecosystems. This natural, biodegradable material is not only durable but also a planet-friendly choice, aligning perfectly with the brand's commitment to ethical and eco-conscious fashion.
