BAGGU

BAGGU

Young graduate Emily Sugihara launched BAGGU alongside her mother Joan, back in 2007 at the age of 24. The idea to create a reusable shopping bag that was cute and more than just your standard cotton tote started as a simple sewing project for the duo, but it soon became a mission to make well-designed bags that would fill many needs, be as affordable as possible and produced in a way that’s mindful of the environment.

The story behind BAGGU

SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION

The duo started with one simple product: a reusable, recycled nylon shoulder bag that folds away into its 12cm square pouch - easy for shoppers to bring along on their day-to-day lifestyles. Purposely designed to minimise material waste, the standard BAGGU is produced from one continuous piece of recycled nylon and the cut-out portion is used to make the carrying pouch; saving material that would otherwise be sent to landfill.

WORLDWIDE SUCCESS!

Since those early days in Emily's San Diego living room making bags with her mum and old school friend Ellen, the Brand has grown into huge international success story with five retail shops in the US and an extensive distibution network worldwide. Today BAGGU produces an extensive assortment of environmentally conscious bags plus other accessories in cool, modern designs and has taken on numerous collaborations with well-established designers and multi-million dollar corporations.
