      Made in Mada is a testament to the artistry and tradition of Madagascar, specialising in a beautiful range of raffia bags. Founded in 2014 by descendants of a family that has called Madagascar home since the late 19th century, Made in Mada honours its roots by maintaining the island's traditional crochet and weaving practices. Each item is meticulously woven to order, embodying a commitment to sustainability and ethical production. Operating on a no stock policy, Made in Mada minimises waste and carbon footprint by shipping directly from Madagascar.

      The products are crafted from all-natural, sustainably sourced raffia fibres, harvested from the native raffia palm which is essential to the ecological balance of the rainforest. This practice not only supports the environment but also provides a steady, year-round income for local artisans, allowing them to work under favourable conditions close to their families. This close-knit production process results in handcrafted pieces renowned for their durability, strength, and beauty, celebrating the unique craftsmanship of Madagascan women and promoting their incredible work on a global stage.
