Uzi Tamu: Transforming fabric waste into fashionable creations
Meet Patricia Sarah, a passionate advocate for sustainable fashion and the creative force behind Uzi Tamu. While studying at Delight Design School, Patricia was deeply inspired by the principles of sustainability.
Disturbed by the amount of fabric waste ending up in landfills, especially old denim, khaki, and other wasted fabrics, she decided to take action. In 2019, Patricia founded Uzi Tamu with a mission to transform discarded fabrics into beautiful, functional items.
She recognized that materials like denim and khaki, known for their sturdiness and stability, were perfect for creating durable products such as handbags, toiletry bags, laptop sleeves, purses, and placemats.
By repurposing these fabrics, Patricia plays a part in not only reducing waste but also breathing new life into materials that would otherwise be discarded. Uzi Tamu’s creations are not just about sustainability; they are also about style and functionality appealing to consumers.
The price range for Uzi Tamu’s products is between 500 and 4,000 KES. You can find Patricia’s creations on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok under the handle @ Uzitamu.
