HIGH SWEET FASHION
Mitz - MEXICO
The brainchild of Montessori schoolteacher Judith Achar, Mitz Bags began in 2003 when a countrywide economic crisis plunged many of her pupils' parents into poverty. Judith came up with several income-generating schemes, and eventually hit upon the idea of weaving trendy bags and accessories from recycled sweet wrappers. The bags-hand-woven using ancient Nahua Indian techniques – have scored a hit in Mexican, US and European markets. Around 2000 products are sold under the 'Mitz' name – translation: "for you" – every month.
