The Market Bag for Apolis Activism was produced by Saidpur Enterprise, a nonprofit group from Bangladesh.
The bag is handcrafted by female artisans, who used locally-grown golden jute and vegetable-tanned leather to put the bags together. The Market Bag was finished with a waterproof lining and an interior pocket. This eco and ethical bag will add a skip in your step the next time you buy groceries.
Implications - Everyday products that provide a way to be green-friendly are appealing to modern customers. Shoppers with fast-paced lifestyles desire items that complete an everyday task while preventing harm to the environment. Creating designs that offer both of these elements could help a company in growing their number of consumers.
