“Made in HK” – handicraft industry were the economic backbone in HK during 70-80s. Plastics, textile
and watches manufacturing took the lead and were world- renowned at that time. However, due to the the decline of local industry and the status of high-wage, can we still revive the concept of “made in HK”? All Take Care leather products are hand-sewing by housewifes and rehabilitated people from community centre. They might be constricted by household or because of the social misunderstanding; they could not find a suitable job easily. Under the coaching of leather specialist, they master the leather-sewing technique. They reconstruct the light industry mode in a family unit, aiming to be self-reliance and improve the standard of living. Take Care is founded by experienced leather specialists and social workers. Applying the classical design with traditional hand-sewing technique together with the use of the family-unit working format, an innovative entrepreneurial mode is created. Apart from importing leathers from Italy, Take Care carry out all production locally-inherit the spirit of “Made in Hong Kong”.
