Story of Parijat
Parijat is the brainchild of Fatema Zohra, an insurance worker who traveled in the rural areas witnessing the harsh conditions that prevented women from participating in the industrial workforce. Fatema soon realized that people are more than willing to work beyond walled factories as long as their livelihoods are guaranteed, and the welfare of their community is ensured. Parijat was established with the sole purpose of providing a community-based liberal working environment and learning program for craftsmen of naturally sourced materials.
Since 2014 Parijat Bangladesh has been striving to preserve the art of handmade in an automated world. It is our mission to uphold our craftsmanship and introduce it to the world outside Bangladesh.
Our products are made to change lives, empower artisans and their families. Our artisans have perfected the art of handicraft by passing it on from one generation to the next. We believe in providing the artisans with a true sense of independence by enabling them financially and ensuring that their creativity is weaved into reality.
Parijat’s products are entirely handmade, and all raw materials are sourced from nature.
