How It's Made: The Apolis Market Tote
What if you could do good for others while also getting your shopping fix? It's not just a fantasy! Let us introduce you to Apolis, the brand behind our covetable Saratoga Springs market totes.
Who founded Apolis and what was their inspiration?
Apolis was founded by brothers Raan and Shea Parton in 2004 with a mission to harness the power of business to create social change. They saw the fashion and textile industry as the perfect 'in' to do just that.
Apolis Empowers Communities Worldwide
According to Apolis' website, every market bag is handcrafted in Bangladesh by hundreds of mothers who receive Fair Trade-certified wages, annual profit dividends, and a retirement fund. The bags are then shipped to Los Angeles, California, where a growing team of 13 people print one-of-a-kind customizations onto the bag.
Show Your Saratoga Springs Pride with Apolis
We're big on showing hometown pride and supporting meaningful causes. With that in mind, it was only natural we carry Apolis in our stores. Right now you can pick up the signature Market Tote emblazoned with Saratoga Springs on the front. This strong and roomy bag can hold up to 100 pounds - seriously! It also has a spill-resistant lining and internal pocket for your essentials.
