Dsenyo is a social enterprise. We believe business is a powerful way to address social and economic problems. Countless challenges confront creative people in Malawi, Africa as they try to build their businesses, practice their craft & support their families.
After living in Malawi, artist Marissa Perry Saints founded Dsenyo to create opportunity for hard-working, African women and artisans. Dsenyo offers hand-crafted bags and accessories that celebrate African textile design. We follow Fair Trade principles working to create maximum benefit for the women, artisans & communities in which we work.

I love my two Hobo bags! There were so many great styles to choose from that I couldn’t pick just one. The Hobo bag is the perfect size to fit everything I need and yet it never feels too heavy or bulky. I feel great wearing my Hobos and knowing that by doing so I am helping empower women in Africa. I have also given friends and family Dsenyo bags as gifts and they love them too! It seems like there is a style and pattern for everyone. Plus, I love how sturdy they are and that they are eco-friendly. When you have one on, you just know that it is designed to last for years.
