Apolis Co-Founder Shea Parton recently visited Saidpur Enterprises in Bangladesh to meet the artisans who make the Apolis market bag, and the above is a sneak preview of our upcoming short film showing the story behind the bag. Each market bag helps provide Bangladeshi mothers with Fair Trade wages, annual profit dividends, and a retirement fund. We see this as a tangible way to break the cycle of poverty and benefit an entire community, and we’re excited to share this story with you through our upcoming short film. Stay tuned!
