For designers and brands
Textiles of Africa connects designers with the producers who make the cloth, directly and transparently.
Every seller passes an identity and business check before their storefront goes live, and every listing is reviewed before it appears.
Fabrics are linked to the technique, the country and the people behind them, with a heritage guide for each tradition.
Payments are held in escrow until the order is delivered, so you and the producer are both covered.
Buy by the meter, or request a quote from a producer for larger quantities, with bulk pricing tiers where the producer offers them.
How to tell authentic cloth from imitations.
The words you will meet when sourcing.
From search to delivery, step by step.
Interviews with designers and producers will appear here as the marketplace opens. Working with African textiles and want to share your story? Write to us at contact@textilesofafrica.com.
