Our company has been in operation for over 50 years, and we pride ourselves for having served our many foreign customers for more than 30 years. We started in the fashion accessories business more than 20 years ago as an outlet for Yvette's creative impulses, and we have never looked back. We presently employ more than 100 women in our handicraft efforts. All manufacturing is done in-house.For quality control reasons, we do not subcontract our work. Our 2500 square meter plant houses modern machinery for fabricating plastic and metal components, but it is through the skilled and patient hands of our employees that we have made our mark in the fashion business. We continuously strive to improve the working conditions of our employees. We are deeply indebted to them and have committed ourselves to advancing their economic, social and educational needs. |

A Little About Ourselves |
We do not operate a sweat shop,
we do not use children or prison labor,
and we do not operate an illegal factory.
