About Kuyichi
Owner · Peter Schuitema is the owner of Kuyichi.
Kuyichi (founded by NGO Solidaridad) is a transparency pioneer: it publishes a full multi-tier supplier list on its website and on Open Supply Hub, links each product to the factory that made it, and has signed the Transparency Pledge. Since 2016 all its cotton is organic, recycled or regenerative, with organic cotton from the Akasya cooperative in Izmir, Türkiye, and named fabric mills (Bossa, Calik, Orta Anadolu, Candiani), dye/laundry houses and garment factories across Türkiye, Portugal, Pakistan and Tunisia, complete with worker counts and certifications. This is close to full farm-to-shelf traceability.

Work out the real cost per wear
Use the price and realistic wear count to compare long-term value.
Cost per wear is the honest test behind "buy less, buy better": a £200 coat worn 300 times beats a £25 one worn 5 times. It rewards wearing what you own and choosing things built to last.
