Episode 4 is a lovely interview with Alice, one of the co-founders of Origin Africa.

Origin Africa is the UK's first 100% not for profit fashion brand selling sustainable clothing to fund social impact projects in Africa.
Tom and Alice founded the business in 2018. They are committed, along with their network of support and project leaders in Africa, to break the cycle of poverty by raising funds for humanitarian development projects through the sale of ethically produced clothing.

In this episode Alice shares their business journey and love for Africa as well as how important it is to look at creating a business that is ethical from start to finish. We discuss the fair production of clothing with consideration of both people and the planet and we chat about how making just a small difference matters too.

I hope you enjoy our conversation and thank you for listening.
