Our story.
Zetu Bags was founded in 2019 by our founder, Arnold Mugaga with a vision to combine sustainable fashion with social impact. Inspired by the vibrant culture and craftsmanship of Uganda, we set out to create a company that not only produced high-quality bags but also addressed the challenges faced by children in accessing education.
We partner with local artisans in Uganda to handcraft each bag, using sustainable materials and traditional techniques. With every purchase, we donate a SeatPack—a schoolbag that transforms into a chair and desk—to a child in need, providing them with a comfortable learning environment.
Our impact.
To date, Zetu Bags has donated 546 SeatPacks to children in rural Uganda and Congo, providing them with the resources they need to succeed in school. We are proud to partner with the Zetu Africa Foundation to create a brighter future for the next generation.
