By attaching to strapless bras, Bili bra straps represents a confluence of South African art, fashion, craft and culture.<\/p>\n<p>As a company, it strives to build into the brighter future of South Africa by creating sustainable jobs. Each pair of straps empowers a previously disadvantaged mother in Wallacedene, a township 45 minutes outside Cape Town.<\/p>\n<p>It seeks to address economic inclusivity by taking industry to the townships, and thereby empowering mothers to earn a sustainable income.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Bili Beadwear was invited to exhibit its products at the wellknown Maison&amp;Objet (link) in Paris. The trip was supported by WESGRO, the trade and investment platform of the Western Cape province (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wesgro.co.za\/\">link<\/a>),<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" itemprop=\"url\" title=\"LogoReciprocity\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/LogoReciprocity.png\" alt=\"LogoReciprocity\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"65\" width=\"109\" data-link-type=\"url\" title=\"LogoReciprocity\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/LogoReciprocity.png 109w, https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/LogoReciprocity-18x12.png 18w\">\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lse.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" itemprop=\"url\" title=\"LSE\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LSE.png\" alt=\"LSE\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"225\" width=\"225\" data-link-type=\"url\" title=\"LSE\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LSE.png 225w, https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LSE-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/reciprocity.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LSE-12x12.png 12w\">\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div><!-- .vgblk-rw-wrapper -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome Your Clients Useful Resources 2.
