Welcome to our range of African animal inspired gifts for children.
Designed and created in Africa by amazingly talented crafters.
Yho!Yho! exists to sell ethically sourced, original products for children and support market access and economic empowerment for women focused small businesses and social enterprises. All of our products carry their own story from Africa and have been chosen for originality of local design, quality of work and pure joy
Our first elephant backpack range, now sold out has been redesigned. The new backpack (Launch date Summer 2026) is made from a beautiful cotton canvas woven for us in the Western Cape on hand looms. This supports local employment at every step of production. Our T-shirt tops are traceable to their origins. All are made from organic cotton or cotton in conversion in factories audited for their good working conditions. The appliqué designs which decorate them are cheerful, unisex and South African in fabric and creation.
Products are designed and created in South Africa and neighbouring countries. We are committed to supporting the ten principles of fair trade as laid down by the World Fair Trade Organisation WFTO . These include creating opportunites, capacity building and Fair Trade practices.
Yho!Yho! works in close partnership with all its suppliers and is proud to be a member of BAFTS (British Association of Fair Trade Shops and Suppliers).
