Who makes Frugi's clothes? 

Our Fab Designers

Lots and lots of lovely people are involved with creating our scrumptious organic clothes. It starts here in Cornwall, with Jeni, Katy and Abigail working busily to produce all the designs, doing lots of drawings and colouring in! Then they bundle all their hard work up into files that they send to the factories.

Our clothes are made in a few different factories in India, Turkey and Portugal. The design team usually head over to see our manufacturers to talk them through the new collections once the designs are done and dusted. They all work together like busy little buzzy bees, making sure that everything is ok with the designs and that everyone understands what's what.

Frugi Farmers

All our clothes are made from organic cotton, grown by our 'Frugi' farmers. In India, these farmers come from a number of rural villages and form part of a great big co-operative. It's a really great thing, and the farmers get a much better price for their fairly traded organic cotton. And of course, the fact that they aren't using nasty pesticides is way better for them and their families - no risk of yucky chemicals being washed into their hut or sprayed over their own food crops :)

The Factory Folk

Once the cotton has been carefully hand picked by the farmers it gets sent to the mill where it gets turned from big fluffy cotton bols into usable cotton yarn, and into fabric that can be used to make the very delicious clothes that we all love so much ;)

All the people who work in Frugi factories are over 19 years old, and they all receive a fair, fixed salary for their hard work and work decent hours. There are now over 500 employees in the factory that we've worked with since we started. That's amazing!! That's a lot of great jobs that have been created. Yippee!
