"...creation of sustainable rural employment that is good quality, fairly paid, flexible and local..."

Hathay Bunano p.s. is a non-profit organisation based in Bangladesh.    We aim to create rural employment that is fairly paid, good quality, flexible and local.   Employment opportunities for artisans that are within a 5-10 minute walk from their homes but at the same time provides a safe and compliant working environment.   Employment that fits in with the artisans rural way of life rather than employment which dictates the rhythm of their lives.

Our strength for employment security is in the wonderful products that we create.    Hathay Bunano p.s. specialise in hand knitting, hand crochet and hand embroidery and sell these products worldwide to mainstream retailers and distributors.   We currently export about 30,000 products per month all over the world, to UK, USA, Australia, Europe and Scandinavia.

Our founder, Samantha Morshed, received recognition for this very valuable work in the 2009 New Years Honours List and has been honoured with an MBE.
