Rethread Africa - Company Profile

Rethread Africa

Rethread Africa, the Sustainable Materials Startup, is a biotechnology and manufacturing company revolutionizing the textile industry. Founded in 2023 in Kenya, the company aims to redefine the industry's practices and create a sustainable future.

Back in 2023, the textile industry faced environmental challenges due to unsustainable practices, with fast fashion contributing to environmental devastation. However, a group of changemakers had a vision to transform the industry. Their mission was to harness the power of nature and create a circular dynamic shift, empowering both smallholder farmers and conscious consumers.

In 2063, the company has achieved remarkable transformation, embracing sustainable materials intricately woven with the essence of nature. The materials are designed in harmony with the soil, utilizing natural resources responsibly and regenerating the earth. Rethread Africa envisions a world where every action taken yields benefits for both people and the environment.

Rethread Africa's approach resonates with conscious consumers who prioritize quality over quantity and value sustainability and ethical production. The company has received a $200.00K grant investment on 08 June 2023 from H&M Foundation - Global Change Award.

Operating from the world's youngest and fastest-growing continent, Rethread Africa invites stakeholders to join in building a future where both people and the planet not only survive but thrive.
