Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity
Create a regenerative textile practice through growing slow textiles, meaning from seed to product with two fibers and indigo dye. Introduce upcycling to complement our sustainable practices. We hope to include and benefit communities within Guatemala, including impact migration, climate change, and sustainability.

  • Value-added process to generate income for the benefit of all stakeholders
  • Revitalize cultural and agricultural aspects of different communities in Guatemala
  • Utilize sustainable practices and production methods
 
Project Synopsis: Activities/Actions Required

  • Complete a business plan that would facilitate Lab Indigo’s objective: Achieve positive cash flow and scalability by in 2025.
