Procurement
Our main materials are the branches of the ornamental and regenerative Jacaranda tree. We prune the 10 Jacaranda trees we have on site as well as source as much as we can from low- income farmers, schools and construction sites in the community. Other wood materials we use are bamboo, mahogany, cypress and processed boards.
Employment from vulnerable groups
Our staff is comprised of individuals who are disadvantaged because they may not have had the financial capacity to complete their basic education. We then equip them with the skills needed to produce high quality wooden crafts.
Scalability & Outsourcing
By rationalizing our production processes to skilled and non-skilled tasks, we are able to offer contractual employment to other members of the community when the need arises to fulfil large orders.
Supply of firewood
From the waste generated in our workshop, we are able to supply firewood to members of the community, reducing the destruction of trees, albeit on a small scale.
