Sandstorm Kenya

Sandstorm Kenya makes leather bags for professional, travel and everyday use, and develops custom corporate workbags for business clients. Its corporate bag work addresses the practical requirements of carrying documents and business essentials, combining generous capacity with a polished appearance for professional settings. Full grain leather is used in this workbag category for durability in everyday service. The company backs its bags with a lifetime guarantee, placing lasting use at the centre of its product proposition.

Production and product development operate from the Opportunity Factory, a two acre facility in Karen, Mbagathi Ridge, opened in June 2022. The operation brings craft production, retail and community craft projects together in one setting. Beading, sisal weaving and crochet form part of its craft activity, alongside ceramics, stained glass and screen printing studios. Through the Opportunity Factory, the business trains women in traditional crafts and works to connect artisans with markets through fairer, more transparent arrangements.
