Collab Zürich Zurich

Ethical creators shop

Marie-Lou from Zurich

About me I’m Marie-Lou and I'm currently doing my master's in biology in Zürich. I grew up in a small town in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, Neuchâtel. As much as I like it there I've also quite enjoyed living in Zürich since I moved here back in 2021. Besides my studies, I like to get creative by, for example, sewing, dancing, and much more! In my day-to-day life, I like to relax ...
"With their system, they manage to gather a large number of small brands to offer you a diverse range of products, featuring clothes, jewelry, tableware…"

To bring back a material memory from Zürich, you can go to one of the souvenir shops in the station, or go to Collab Zürich to support ethical and sustainable businesses.

The concept of the store is to display all sorts of creator work in one place. Any brand can ask for a partnership but Collab Zürich selects the brands one by one, considering their social, ecological, and local impact. Not all brands display the three criteria but most do. You can find more precise information about all the brands on their website. With their system, they manage to gather a large number of small brands to offer you a diverse range of products, featuring clothes, shoes, jewelry, tableware… Definitely many more than what you could find in a souvenir shop!

Most of the products are not as affordable as the ones one could find in the fast fashion industry but it is the fair prices for more ethical products. For several brands, you can also find a page on the product’s worth to know more about the manufacturing process. So you have everything in your hands to buy what seems good to you! Besides all this, the store is also very pleasant to spend time in, with wood furniture, concrete floor, and pastel colours.
