Bags of Ethics/ Supreme Creations 25th Anniversary Summer Garden Party

Dr R Sri Ram, founder of the business, said “We are here to celebrate 25 years of manufacturing at the Bags of Ethics factory in Pondicherry. Many of you have visited the factory and I along with my entire team wanted to say Thank You to all of you. I can see so many successful entrepreneurs here and they will agree that it is a difficult journey not just to commence a business but to sustain this over many years. When I started this business we focussed on three things – People, Product and Planet. I have been immensely lucky that we have stuck to these three principles. Talking about people – We employ over 80% of women and have empowered entire communities over the years. Our team speaks over 14 languages fluently. Our workforce is one of the best in the industry. Our products are made with the best machines in the world and we work with some of the best designers – Dior, Zuhair Murad, Julien Macdonald and several of the new generation of British designers. Planet – Lastly our products have changed consumer behaviour to ensure we are kinder to our planet. We revolutionised behavioural changes by reducing over 30 billion plastic bags from our retail environment. We brought this change by using biodegradable and sustainable materials. We also ensured it was fun to use by combining fashion.”
