Corporate responsibility

 At TheUrbanApparel.com, we value the importance of corporate responsibility towards people, the society and the environment surrounding us. We strive to make sure our business holds no harm to the stakeholders and to do what we are capable of to benefit them.

With this awareness at the core of our business, the brand ‘Urban Siam’ has been created as part of our first CSR initiative. Urban Siam is a brand which sells exclusively products designed and produced in Thailand. Most Urban Siam items are also handcrafted by local people, using locally found materials. As a result, the products possess an ethnic look and feel, making them very unique and rare.

Through sourcing, we are making some change to the lives of the people who made these products. Increasing their incomes and allowing them to acquire the life’s necessities. By purchasing Urban Siam products, you also become a part of this wonderful initiative as well as having a chance to get hold of some of the most unique items.

Furthermore, T-U-A aims to improve the lives of the underprivileged people in Thailand by making donations from the profits we make from Urban Siam. 10% of the profit made from the sales of Urban Siam merchandise will be shared to charities and aid organizations in Thailand.

From November 2009 to December 2011, 10% of profits from Urban Siam sales will be given to Baan Kru Noi Foundation, a home for underprivileged children located in Bangkok. The children under the care of Baan Kru Noi are aged between 6 and 18 years old, some with imprisoned parents, homeless, and suffer from multiple disabilities. With only 10 staff running the home and limited resources, Baan Kru Noi is in need of financial aids to help care for the children.
