Beyond the fashion industry, these same communities also face economic challenges, including a lack of well-paying jobs and resources to build financial security.
Our Solution,SMADA BayLux for All bridges the gap between exclusivity and accessibility. Our products—ranging from handbags and sunglasses to apparel—are designed with premium craftsmanship and offered at an affordable price point. We also empower underserved communities through job creation, career opportunities, and financial literacy programs.
