Where are Fizbags made?
Fizbags are made in China. This allows us to offer the bags at a price that is affordable for everyone. We have close relationships with our suppliers in the Far East and we make it a top priority that all people involved in the manufacture of our bags are fairly paid and have good working conditions in line with our Ethical Policy.
There is the question of offsetting the environmental impact of having our products delivered from China. We minimise our carbon footprint by shipping extremely large quantities in as few shipments as possible to the UK. Using the shipment method means we are using one of the lowest levels of carbon emissions possible. We do not advocate airfreight, as the environmental cost is significantly higher. This is why we ask you to bear with us when certain prints are out of stock!
