Is Eveni Pacific a Pacific-owned business?
Yes — family owned and Samoan founded, started in Māngere, Auckland. Nine of eleven staff are Pacific women and the carvers are in Apia.
Where are the clothes made?
Blocks are carved in Apia, Samoa. Printing, cutting and sewing all happen in the Māngere workroom. Nothing is produced in a factory we have not stood in.
Where can I buy in person?
The Māngere showroom, plus eight stockists across New Zealand, Australia and the islands.
What happens to your offcuts?
They are sewn into bags and pouches or quilted. None goes to landfill.
Do you donate or sponsor?
Two percent of every order goes to cyclone recovery and the carving apprenticeship, and the figures are published on the journal twice a year. Sponsorship requests go through the contact form.
