We work closely with partners around the world
Our foundation
Here at Manelleh we believe we can make a difference for women through the way we run our business. This is the foundation of our company. At the heart of our work is close collaboration with all our partners around the world. That way we know how each product is made, who makes it, and what the women are paid. And by doing so we ensure that the women receive responsible wages and a proper working environment.
Our purpose is clear. We want to raise living standards and create decent, meaningful, and dignified jobs for women across the world. We want to give women the opportunity to be independent and to live a life free from poverty. To give them the chance to earn their own money, send their children to school, and live free from prostitution, discrimination, insecure or low-paid jobs, and from physical or sexual violence.

We run our business to make a difference for women
When women thrive, their families thrive too.
Gender inequality is one of the oldest and most widespread forms of inequality in the world.
For centuries it has deprived women of their voice in the world, devalued their work - and, overall, made women’s position unequal to men’s in everything from the household and local level to the national and global level.
Empowering women makes an unparalleled difference for them, their families, and their communities.
When women work, they invest 90 percent of their income back into their families, compared with 35 percent for men.
We want to create a future with more responsible businesses
NON-NEGOTIABLES
At Manelleh, we strive to create change. We want to be the next generation of more responsible businesses.
We do this by committing to what many companies call their code of conduct.
We call it our non-negotiables, and it represents the values and principles we will not negotiate and never compromise on.
