The SOKO factory.
We, our clients and partners, believe that quality manufacturing can improve quality of life. This means an approach to manufacturing that respects the environment and supports a skilled, dynamic, local workforce. A workforce who produce high-quality clothing that our clients and their customers love and want to keep.
We work with clients from high street retailers to luxury brands translating their design concepts into beautiful sustainable, ethically produced pieces of clothing.

ENVIRO-IMPACT.

- Having installed rainwater tanks, water used for drinking, steaming and cleaning is entirely self-sufficient due to rainwater collected from the roof.
- 25% of the Factory’s power requirements are generated from on-site solar panels
- Since 2020 - 2,100 kgs of CO2 has been saved by using solar panels
