Vlisco Fabric and The Pride of People who Wear Them

Vlisco brand shares in an extraordinary heritage of design and innovation that is grounded in Africa's tradition and love of nature which is also adapting to the needs of its growing consumer class. Vlisco originally produced batik fabrics for Dutch East Indies; its colony at the time which is the present day Indonesia. African soldiers who were on a commission took the colorful fabrics home to share with their poeple. The people fell in love with the fabrics and the soldiers kept supplying it to them. Vlisco then expanded its market and started designing for the African consumer. Africa and Africans around the world holds the biggest market share for Vlisco products.

In Africa and among Africans around the world; wearing authentic wax print by Vlisco is as good as driving a Rolls Royce or wearing a Rolex watch. The Vlisco wax print is given a unique name as soon as it hits the African soil by the people. The designs and colors on a fabric reveals a story, often meaningful to the wearer and their community. It may also provide information about the wearer’s tribal origin, social standing, age and marital status.
