ABOUT US
Minka is a truly sustainable fashion company, founded by three sisters in 2012. Minka designs and manufactures fashion accessories such as headbands, scrunchies, bows, bracelets, necklaces, and more, by reusing discarded fabric from the textile industry. All our products are handmade by women at social risk. Minka has designed a production process that is environmentally sustainable, preventing fabric waste from ending up in landfills and providing training and employment opportunities for women in need.
