Biddy Bags is a non-profit public company limited by guarantee.
Women are contracted on a product-to-product basis and benefit through profit-share and increased social interaction.
For each product sold the woman who crafted it receives over half of the profit with the remainder being used to cover operational costs and to expand the enterprise’s reach.
Amongst other things, the digital age and globalisation has decreased meaningful human interaction and connection.
Biddy Bags is one attempt to remind all of us that “milk doesn’t come from supermarkets, and money doesn’t come out of walls”.

Biddy Bags reminds us that people are important, everyone has a story and we are all in this together.
Biddy Bags products are both a fashion and a social statement.

Included in the purchase of every unique Biddy Bags product is the story of its maker.
Using Biddy Bags products reminds us that the privileges we enjoy are not derived from faceless entities, but real people.
