Work With Us

For  retailers, designers, and consignment partners

Kua Nasi collaborates with stores, studios, and designers who want beautifully made, story-backed pieces on their shelves or in their collections — without the wait times or minimums of mass production.

What we offer

  1. Wholesale — order our existing collection of sisal kyondos and beaded jewellery at wholesale pricing, shipped Ex Works (EXW) from Kenya.

  2. Consignment — stock our pieces on a trial basis with no upfront purchase. Our standard terms: 65/35 split, 90-day/180-day trial periods, monthly payment.

  3. Collaboration — bring us your specifications, and we produce and ship to match your brand, your market, your customer.

  4. Designer collaborations — if you're a designer or studio interested in co-creating a piece using traditional sisal weaving or Samburu beadwork techniques, we'd love to hear your concept.

Why work with us

  1. Every piece is hand-made by a named artisan in Mwala, Kithyoko, or Archers Post, Kenya - not an anonymous factory.

  2. Small minimums: our first-order minimum is calculated across your total order, not per style, so you can build a considered starting range without overcommitting. 

  1. Credibility you can verify directly: our founder is currently on an EYE apprenticeship with designer Susana Bettencourt in Guimarães, Portugal - happy to put you in touch for a reference.

  2. Already tested in the European market, including Zurich (thanks to Swiss Re), Lithuania (through ISM University), and Belgium (via ULiège and VentureLab). 

Get started

  1. Tell us a little about your store or studio, your market, and what you're looking for, and we'll follow up with a linesheet, pricing, and lead times, and a call to discuss the pre-onboarding process.
