“Our journey started on 2018. It began with a true devotion and a simple wish: preservation of traditional Batak ulos cloth.

Tobatenun was always more than just an enterprise. We had purpose on raising entrepreneurial spirit of fellow ulos maker in traditional villages in North Sumatra with a number of educational and training on ulos revitalisation of near extinct dying techniques and motifs

In doing our business we practice a fair trade program with our fellow woven artisans and suppliers. And helped communities thrive through our social and women empowerment activities”
