“The journey from vision to creation is filled with challenges, and at KOCO, we believe it’s a path best walked together. I’m proud to have built a bridge between the world’s most creative minds and the remarkable artisans of Tamil Nadu in Southern India.
As we look forward, I am excited about the opportunities to foster more of these fruitful partnerships, pushing the boundaries of what we can achieve together in ethical fashion manufacturing and the ‘slow fashion’ movement demonstrated in lovingly hand-knitted garments.”
