In Vietnam, Bibol works with artisans to share the know-how of ancestral Vietnamese bamboo craftsmen. Founder Little Moon started working in the fields when she was 8 years old, and she left Vietnam alone for France at 13, at the end of the 1970s. After a 20-year career in France, she returned to visit her homeland with her husband, and together they developed the idea of a fair trade brand.
Since 2007, Little Moon and her husband have developed bamboo production equitably, starting with bowls: artisans are paid decently and do not work with solvents. In 2011, the workshop manager trained with Helvetas Swiss Intercooperation, and the workshop works to limit its CO2 emissions.
In March 2018, Little Moon received a certificate from Vietnam's Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs for her contribution to the protection and care of children. Bibol says each piece is carefully handmade, so every one is unique.
