2 Mielie Shop

 |
Why Mielie? Mielie is Afrikaans for corn, the staple diet of most South
Africans, and probably the first item on most of the weaver's shopping
list.

Mielie's range of fabulous off-beat handbags and accessories are
designed by Adri and handmade from recycled materials. We use as little
machinery as possible, thereby creating as many jobs as we can. Since we started in 2002, we have grown to a group of approximately 30 people who work from their homes in the greater Cape Town area, some of whom have epilepsy. Working from home means that mothers can be with their children and transport costs are kept to a minimum. We all meet once a week to drop off completed products, check quality and receive new orders. |
