The Story of Nuniz
A Love affair in the marking
Nadia’s love affair with bags started at the young age of 16, when she started collecting bags, and subsequently deconstructing them to satisfy her fascination with the world of bag making.
Nuniz Cairo is born
Nuniz is proudly an Egyptian brand founded in 2009 following Nadia’s commitment to detail and quality that lead her to found a workshop allowing her to guarantee the outcome of every bespoke piece. Over the course of the company’s 12- year journey, Nadia who is self taught in the handbag industry, made it her mission to learn every step of the process from her team. Consequently, she opened their eyes to the infinite possibilities of the international fashion world and to innovative ways of using local resources in Egypt.
Brand Philosophy
Quality and refinement
It is for these very principles, quality and refinement, that we has always shunned mass production, manufacturing lines and outsourcing. Each and every product coming out under Nuniz reflects the hard work put into it by our artisans, and with those values at heart our signature collection was born.
Our First Collection ( Corniche, Downtown, key of life )
We debuted our first collection in 2011, capitalizing on the post revolutionary heightened sense of pride taking over Egypt – the time to buy high quality Egyptian made products was unprecedented. With that, Nuniz was born out of a need to provide the local market with high quality finished leather bags. With our own workshop, we were able to handcraft high quality products that meet international standards locally. We pride ourselves as an esteemed, locally grown, proud Egyptian brand that combines fine craftsmanship with effortless beauty that is fit for an everyday, smart and casual consumer.
A Modern Look
Egyptian symbols and architecture are two of the most prominent aspects of our heritage, instilling a sense of pride in our past, and providing inspiration for our present. With that belief providing foundation for our brand DNA, we explore these aspects, and utilize them in a way that brings our past alive in our modern world.
Joining Forces
