Carry an entirely unique piece of Moroccan artisan craftsmanship with an En Shalla tote bag! Over the last few years, En Shalla have worked on a project embroidering recycled food bags in and outside Marrakech, Morocco. With the motto, "Don't waste, create & educate", they work with recycled plastic bags that would have originally been used to carry industrial quantities of rice, couscous, flour and other commodity foods. Working closely with women’s groups, En Shalla are passionate about giving back to the community by preserving ancient embroidery and bag making techniques. Even better, it’s roomy enough to fit in all the daily essentials (plus a few extras). The result: chic, durable and sustainable tote bags, supporting both recycling and craftsmanship in Morroco's rural communities.

Born in Morocco, bred in London, En Shalla is proud to offer couture craftsmanship with a sustainable twist.
We work with recycled plastic bags that would have originally been used to carry industrial quantities of rice, couscous, flour and other commodity foods. The bags come in a 10, 25, and 50 kilo sac and any of the designs we make can be replicated throughout the 3 sizes. The bags are hand embroidered weaving different materials through the plastic grid like squares on the outside of the sacs.
We decided to create a charity in Morocco - The food bag foundation - where we will concentrate on educating people in and around these villages in Marrakech, we want to help people to learn, to read and write. These are fundamental aspects of human life that everybody should be given the opportunity to have and we would like to offer this practice to these already wonderfully talented women.
