About - Social Impact

KEZA is a social enterprise, driven by our desire to build sustainable businesses in Africa and elevate production standards in the international fashion industry. Africa is known primarily for corruption, disease and poverty, but that certainly is not the full scope of Africa. If we can rebrand Africa by showcasing their beauty and excellence, we might even change their expectations of themselves.

KEZA provides consulting services to our African partners free of charge. We develop their businesses to the point of profitability, not just sustainability. Then we buy large volumes of product at prices gauged by their intrinsic market value, which is far greater than what fair trade would require us to pay.

KEZA sustains itself through the sales of our products. In addition to providing free development service to our partners, we give 10% of our profits to the KEZA Foundation, which provides funding for equipment, facilities, and tools for our partners. When needed, it provides funding for school fees for their children and family health care in order to create an environment conducive for doing business.

When you give to the KEZA Foundation, 100% of the funds go directly to our partners. To donate to KEZA Foundation, please click the donate button below.
