Beriah’s Boutique, Lahore

Beriah’s Boutique in Lahore is an outlet for Umeed-trained women to sell their embroidered products for a fair wage. Opened in 2006, the Boutique provides work for the UP-trained women to enable them to earn enough money to support their families without depending for 100% support from their husbands and brothers. Beriah’s Boutique is effectively a wholesaler supplying products to shops in other major cities in Pakistan. The Umeed Partnership, through Beriah’s Boutique, needs outlets overseas, and especially in UK and Ireland.

Retail outlets in the UK and Ireland are invited to contact John Perkins (john@justshopping.co.uk) in the UK or Yousuf Gill (gillyousuf@hotmail.com) in Pakistan to view samples of Umeed Products and arrange for delivery of consigments.

The Umeed Partnership

is a charity registered in both Pakistan and the United Kingdom to support a project which offers opportunities for empowerment of women in the male-dominated tribal communities of western Baluchistan, one of the remotest and poorest areas of Pakistan adjacent to the border with Afghanistan. The project has recently been extended to slum districts of Lahore and to marginalised Hindu Dalit communities in the Cholistan desert, where provision of education and vocational training in the form of carpentry and woodworking is also made for boys.
