Tabitha + Co™

Tabitha Co™ (she/her) founded TABITHA +CO™ with an eye to providing quality leather bags and accessories. As part of the ‘Slow Fashion Movement’, each bag is made one-at-a-time or in small batches, listening to the requests of client needs.  New design styles are implemented mindfully to ensure sustainable actions are being met using the 'Fashion Revolution' manifesto as a guide to guarantee that best practices are continually being adopted. This means regularly working to learn more about the companies that supply the raw goods.  The high-quality bags are from raw materials from companies that are committed to safe and environmentally sound work operations, and this is shown in the superiority of the leather hides.

Her love for fashion and the design aesthetic led to studying Fashion Arts at Holland College, and she has held positions in the design and manufacturing space in Nova Scotia, Canada, with mentorship from some of the industry's top performers, before TABITHA + CO™ was founded in the spring of 2018 to create Mindfully Made™ ​leather goods.

Beautiful design styles are created that can take one from a morning ‘On The Go’, to a night on the town and are versatile for everything in between. The design aesthetic offers a unique handcrafted multi-functional and timeless leather collection, that is Mindfully Made™ with passion & complements everyday real-world needs.  As a juried member with Craft Nova Scotia, Craft New Brunswick, and PEI Craft Council, she was awarded the Pictou County Chamber of Commerce New Business of The Year Award for 2019 and nominated for the 28th and 29th annual RBC Canadian Women Entrepreneur Awards.
