Sabahar began in 2004 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in the home of its Founder, Kathy Marshall and her family. The humble workshop employed one weaver, a couple women doing natural dyeing and a dream to introduce silk production and processing into Ethiopia. Through the years, our growth has been steady. Almost 20 years later, we are proud that we directly employ 98 people at our workshop, work with 75 weavers in their homes, cooperate with three weaving workshops and provide part-time employment for hundreds of spinners and silk producers.
