According to the Oxford Dictionary, sustainability is defined as “Avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance.”

At Maaji, we define sustainability as being socially responsible, environmentally friendly, and economically viable. Sustainability is about our commitment to our partners, our team members, and most importantly our customers to do the right thing and leave the world a better place than when we found it.

We Believe:

1. Everyone can make an impact.
2. Every action we take counts, no matter how big or how small.
3. Change can’t wait, our planet can’t wait.
4. We are on a journey, every day in every way we are learning and improving.
5. We are and we will continue making a positive difference. 

We are commited to:

1. Becoming a certified B Corp, the gold standard in sustainability.
2. Providing all Maaji employees with a fun work environment that provides the opportunity to grow in your career and be compensated with more than just a living wage.
3. Supporting local industries, currently, 90% of our fabrics are made by local suppliers.
4. Measuring and reducing the impact of our carbon footprint on the environment.
5. Designing sustainable swimwear, beachwear, and activewear collections

Maaji has always been sustainably conscious and committed to planting trees, supporting beach clean-ups and treating everyone in the supply chain with dignity, and providing fair pair, however, Amalia and Manuela Sierra, Maaji Founders, were looking for Maaji to do more.   

I see what the garment industry as a whole is doing to our environment and I recognized the Sierra sisters’ commitment as my opportunity to make a significant impact on not just designing more sustainably but making the world a cleaner, happier and healthier place.
