Baobab is a manufacturer of premium quality leather goods, located in Nanyuki, near Mount Kenya. We aim to provide sustainable work opportunities to grass-roots Kenyans. This we achieve through a combination of employment and collaboration with independent artisans. Designed & Made in Kenya Coco Chanel 'Simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance' All our designs follow the following three principles: Simplicity, functionality & durability. We are often inspired by equestrian & military bags which we believe embody our philosophy. Our first bag was a contemporary interpretation of the saddle bags issued to the US Cavalry in the American Civil War. Quality is our main priority We aim to provide a product of consistently high quality which we also believe is affordable. We also want to create timeless classics which will stand the test of time. It's also our belief that the highly diverse Kenyan artisan culture can collectively produce 'world class' products!
