I absolutely LOVE Maggie's products!
As a student at the University of Michigan I invited the company's president to speak to students interested in sustainable business (our undergrad Net Impact chapter). She enthusiastically volunteered, came with a ton of Maggie's products, and wow'd the crowd with her amazing story!
One of the highlights was the showing of a 13 minute video that outlined Maggie's involvement in the creation of The Fair Trade Zone, a 100% worker-owned Sewing Co-Operative in Nueva Vida, Nicaragua and the first worker-owned cooperative in the world to gain Free Trade Zone status!
Maggie’s has been selling organic fibers for 16 years, and has long been featured at natural products’ stores nationwide, most notably Whole Foods. Maggie's offers several items, such as socks, shirts, and baby clothes. They are committed to socially responsible business practices, and have always made our socks in the U.S. only. All their products are long-lasting, durable, and comfortable!
I was so excited about this company that I applied to intern there over the summer. Lucky me, I was hired, and have learned even more about the company and its products. Not only are Maggie's lounge wear, socks, baby clothes, tights, shirts, and accessories comfortable and durable, but they look great and are made in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. The company practices what it preaches to, from recycling, to using organic soaps and detergents, to designing new items from otherwise unsellable product! Plus, they now have an online outlet, a great place to find everyday discounts, deep discounts, and closeout blowout pricing!
