our Goal
Improve the quality of life in the Ummah in a way that is consistent with Muslim Values, and sustainable. Produce food that is halal and tayyib, that does not deplete or destroy the consumers' health or wider environment. Products that are designed to be less damaging in every regard and longer lasting. Packaging that does not last for a thousand years while being recycled through fish and other animals into the human food chain and possibly our very DNA. Humanity is in crisis and Islam offers a solution. From our food to our consumer products to a massive lack of opportunity. Design for Values....is one step towards changing the world for the better.
