Hi friends, I want to share a brief story. I’ve been searching for the best way to empower skilled artisans and others in communities like the one I grew up in, in Africa. Modern Native Co. to serve as a store front and a bridge for highly talented leather makers in the developing world, by marketing, purchasing, and distributing their products to caring and supporting people like you. Inspired by three talented leather makers, whose stories I’ll be sharing on themodernnative.com  I found passionate artisans  who desire to make a living and dedicate their lives creating beautiful, handmade authentic leather products. Our mission? To empower communities where our products are tanned and sourced, giving back through partnerships that provide critical needs like clean water, medical relief, and essential resources.
