Since we started trading in 1991 Dawn and Helen have maintained an ethical approach to business. They are proud of their factory in Ghana, West Africa.

Despite the challenges in institutional support and infrastructure their small company illustrates what it is possible to achieve.

Dawn viisted the Ghana factory in 2002 and the visit was featured in Marie Claire Magasine.

Our Posting Costs

We charge an at-cost flat posting rate and do not add to our garment prices to compensate for apparently free/low postage.
We do not pay for return postage.

We try and be as fair as we can and welcome feedback on our policy.

Our postage is a flat rate, whatever the size of your parcel.

Our postage cost covers the cost and ensures that staff who handle your order can be properly paid.

Most customer orders are for 2 or more items. If you order a single item and think the postage is too high let us know and we will credit you part of the cost.
