A company interacts with different groups of people, at different levels and impacts each of them somehow.
We, at Bimba, believe that our decisions and actions, even the smallest, are important, should include all factors and be as fair and considerate as possible.
We CARE for the people involved in this entrepreneurial journey. Our partner factories employed mainly women, respect their rights creating an enjoyable working place. Being in the lingerie world, our customers are often women with very similar values, an eagerness to change things and move forward with positivity.
We also realize that we had a gem in our hands and that we could share our knowledge and take a step into social projects. Period underwear is a very special product; often considered as a revolution for women. And it is indeed… It has a huge environmental impact (as traditional pads and tampons are creating a lot of waste), health impact (as traditional pads and tampons are often toxic) and social impact (it empowers women to take care of their health and spend less money on the long run).
This is why we are working with women’s foundations and NGO’s teaching them how to make period underwear for them to make their own to be distributed to their community.
We are always happy to help when possible; so if you are interested in a similar project, feel free to get in touch with us.
