O My Bag Company Profile

O My Bag was founded in 2011 as a social enterprise with the aim to not only be profitable, but also to give back by approaching business in a fair, environmentally friendly and responsible manner. By using business as a force for good O My Bag wants to create a positive difference in the world - one bag at a time. O My Bag believes that by supporting conscious trade it can contribute to a better world with fair working environments, equal opportunities and respect for the environment. The headquarters is based in Amsterdam, but O My Bag is available in 27 countries worldwide. The bags and accessories are handmade in Kolkata, India, where O My Bag has long term relations with 4 manufacturers that all share O My Bag's mission. Together, they work on more jobs for women, better working conditions, higher wages and the promotion of women to higher positions. The eco-leather, that is tanned without harmful chemicals, is sourced from two certified partner tanneries, that work with the highest sustainability standards. To ensure that this symbiotic relationship between O My Bag and its suppliers flows back to the Indian communities rather than being a purely transactional relationship, O My Bag donates 1% of its annual revenue to social impact projects in and around Kolkata.
