HELMI- bag was created in cooperation of Mum's and brewery Laitilan Wirvoitusjuomatehdas. Both companies have a great respect for the environment and produce high quality products in an environmentally friendly way. The drinks of Laitilan Wirvoitusjuomatehdas are produced with the help of wind energy, the products of Mum's are handmade. The two companies also have similarities when it comes to feminism: the "Skumppa" sparkling wine drink from Laitilan Wirvoitusjuomatehdas is the image of a modern woman on the drink shelf. Mum's has been employing women in developing countries from the very beginning. The HELMI bag is a link between these two aspects, an ethically produced handbag with a transport-safe inner pocket the size of a "Skumppa" bottle :-D
