Grateful for You: Happy Customer Service Week from Ecodunia
Kelvin MCelebrating You: Our Customers, Our Heart
Every October, businesses around the world celebrate Customer Service Week, a time to recognize and appreciate the incredible people who make their work possible. At Ecodunia this week holds a special place in our hearts. It’s more than a celebration of great service — it’s a heartfelt thank-you to you, our customers, who believe in ethical craftsmanship and sustainable living.
From the moment you choose one of our handmade bags or unique brass jewelry pieces, you become part of a story that stretches across continents, from our workshop in Nairobi, Kenya, to homes and hearts all around the world. Each purchase fuels a cycle of dignity, creativity, and opportunity.
You haven’t just supported a brand, you’ve helped build livelihoods and empower communities. For that, we’re truly grateful.
Because of You: Honoring Our Amazing Customers
At Ecodunia, our journey has always been guided by people, not profits. From our founders to our artisans and our growing community of customers, we share a common belief: every purchase has power.
Your loyalty and encouragement have shaped who we are. Many of you have been with us since our earliest days, when Ecodunia was just a small team of three with a dream to make sustainable products in Kenya. Today, that dream supports over twenty artisans, designers, marketers, and more, and it continues to grow every year.
Every review you leave, every social media post you share, and every referral you make helps Ecodunia grow ethically and sustainably. You’ve helped us introduce new collections, improve designs, and expand our workshop in Nairobi.

One of our artisans, Shiro, recently said:
“When I see photos of people around the world wearing our handmade jewelry, I feel proud. I know our work matters, and that’s because of customers like you.”
That’s what Customer Service Week is truly about: celebrating the human connections that make ethical fashion thrive.
Customer Service Week: How Your Support Empowers Artisans Across Kenya
Every Ecodunia purchase has a ripple effect that goes far beyond a single transaction. Your support empowers real people, the talented men and women who handcraft every bag, unique bracelet, and brass ring.
Our artisans come from diverse backgrounds, many from areas where employment opportunities are scarce. Through Ecodunia, they’ve found stable jobs, creative fulfillment, and hope for a better future.
Here’s how your support makes a difference:
- Fair wages and ethical working conditions — Every artisan earns a living wage that respects their skill and time.
- Free daily meals — We provide three nutritious meals each day at our workshop.
- Health insurance coverage — Ensuring every worker and their family can access medical care.
- NSSF savings plan — Contributions toward long-term savings and retirement, helping artisans plan for a secure future.
- Skills training and mentorship — We invest in artisans’ professional growth, offering training in design, leadership, and business management.
When you carry an Ecodunia bag or wear our handcrafted jewelry, you’re carrying a piece of Kenya’s story, one of resilience, craftsmanship, and shared humanity.
From Our Workshop to You: Celebrating the Impact of Every Ecodunia Purchase
Each Ecodunia product begins its life with a commitment to sustainability and community. From locally sourced cotton canvas and recycled brass jewelry to vegan leather made from eco-friendly materials, every step reflects our values.
Our artisans in Nairobi’s Eastlands and Kibera neighborhoods pour care into every detail from hand-stitching durable canvas tote bags to polishing brass cuffs and rings. Nothing is mass-produced; each piece is unique, crafted with love and precision.
Behind every finished product lies an ecosystem of impact:
- Farmers who grow the cotton used in our canvas.
- Local brass casters who melt and mold recycled materials into jewelry.
- Tailors who cut, stitch, and assemble each bag by hand.
- Team members who package and ship your orders with care.
Your purchase helps sustain this entire network, proving that fashion can be both beautiful and responsible.
As one of our artisans, Lilian, puts it:
“When someone buys an Ecodunia bag, they’re not just buying a product; they’re investing in people. That gives us pride and purpose.”

Our Promise: Keeping People at the Heart of Everything We Do
Customer Service Week is also a time for reflection, to reaffirm our commitment to ethical production, transparency, and exceptional service.
We believe that good customer service doesn’t end when your order arrives. It continues through every interaction, from quick responses to your questions to thoughtful packaging and long-lasting quality.
We’re continually improving how we serve you:
- Strengthening our communication channels for faster support.
- Refining packaging to reduce waste while maintaining quality.
- Enhancing product quality through new training and artisan skill development.
But our most important promise remains the same: to always put people first — our artisans, our partners, and our customers.
As founder, Cera Muchiri often says,
“Ecodunia isn’t just about making beautiful things. It’s about making a difference, one handcrafted piece at a time.”
Grateful Beyond This Week: The Journey Ahead
As Customer Service Week comes to a close, our gratitude doesn’t. We carry it with us every day, in every stitch, every polish, every shipment.
Ecodunia’s mission has always been to blend artistry with impact. And it’s your belief in that mission that makes everything possible.
Looking ahead, we’re excited to expand our team, create more artisan opportunities, and introduce even more sustainable designs. But one thing will never change: our deep appreciation for everyone who’s helped us grow from a small workshop to a global ethical brand.
From all of us, our artisans, designers, managers, and storytellers, thank you. Thank you for supporting fair trade, believing in handmade, and helping us build a better future for African artisans and their families.
“Because of you, our story continues, and it’s more beautiful than ever.”
