Vetted by The Labour Movement · last reviewed October 2026 · How we vet brands
Korissa works to give artisans fair wages, wider markets and secure livelihoods through home goods made from natural fibers.
The story
Korissa was founded by Angela and Nora, whose story with the brand began in 2017. The company describes itself as woman-led.
Most of its products are handmade in Bangladesh, where Korissa partners with four artisan organizations that work to fair trade principles. Artisans work in jute, seagrass and other locally sourced natural fibers, and some of the work supports women in low-income neighborhoods of Dhaka.
Korissa doesn't hold a third-party fair trade certification. The Labour Movement vetted it against our fair trade standards before listing it, and we review it every year.
