WHIRLWIND OF A YEAR

What a whirlwind of a year it's been. COVID -19 had us concerned for a while, but Black Lives Matter came along like a force and my little team has been super busy ever since! We had over 15,000 new followers on our Instagram page and all our stock sold. My dedicated weavers have been busy making more bags to keep up with this exciting demand, and the rest of the team are up to their ears in boxes and bags packing your orders. I'm in there with them, packing away in this Ghanaian heat! ⁠⠀

I wasn’t expecting my little brand to be featured so widely during this time. We have been featured on platforms, such as The Business of Fashion, The Telegraph and also on Beyonce's new Black Business Directory.

The huge amount of press aside, I was grateful to hold my torch up and support the Black Lives Matter movement, and support Black lives & businesses around the world who are striving for a change just like I am. I am so grateful to those who have been on this journey with me, and I welcome those who have just joined! 

We are very excited about all of these special parcels we are sending out to you. I can't wait to hear what you think!⁠ If you are looking to buy your first AAKS, all are bags are still available here.

Let’s keep thriving, exploring & most importantly keep learning every day. One step at a time. #BLM

Best,
Akosua
