KoKoTé: Nachhaltigkeit auf allen Ebenen
Uri is our home, a place of high mountains and breathtaking nature. This must be protected. Therefore, in our view, there is no alternative to responsible entrepreneurship, where companies demonstrate their responsibility – be it for nature or society – in their daily operations and not just talk about it in their mission statement.
We take responsibility
Responsible entrepreneurship is at the core of KoKoTé's history and has been lived out daily ever since. We produce bags and accessories from sustainable materials whose origins we know precisely. All our products are 100% manufactured in our workshop in Uri. We train people with a refugee background and offer them the opportunity to complete a Swiss apprenticeship so that they can lead an independent life in Switzerland without relying on social welfare. All profits generated by our company are reinvested into the Association Equilibre. We are proud of this. And we hope that in the future, more companies will take responsibility for people worldwide and for nature.
About UsOur cornerstones
sustainability
We know the origin of all materials. These are as ecological as currently possible. We produce 100% in Switzerland, in our Uri manufactory. We sew with solar power.
Social Commitment
We offer people with a refugee background (>26 years old) – especially women – the opportunity to combine work with (catch-up) education and support them until they obtain a vocational qualification. The KoKoTé Manufactory is a project of the Association Equilibre. The proceeds from the sale of the products secure future education and work integration measures.
Responsible Company
We are convinced that politics, society, and businesses must act together to counteract the social effects of demographic change, globalization, the climate crisis, and growing social inequality. KoKoTé stands for responsible entrepreneurship by seeking the most socially and ecologically sustainable solution in all areas of our activities.
