ETI SEN NYC is a small black-owned brand created by designer/artist Sam Coffie. Based in NYC, the brand’s name derives from his West African background which is used as a greeting in Ghana. Starting in 2019, Sam wanted to create a bag that he thought would catch the eye, but also provoke thought. The ‘Thank You for Shopping Black!’ tote was designed as a witty take on the iconic “Thank You for Shopping…” bags used in daily routine. Its purpose is a fun way to showcase pride in shopping with black owned businesses, and function for everyday use. The tote’s ethos is playful, confident, proud, and bold. Created as a double entendre, the graphic also sheds a light on a community often singled out and unjustly profiled in their journey as a leading consumer across varied markets. The brand ETI SEN NYC believes that shopping black-owned businesses helps build communities that are often overlooked/undervalued. You can find this tote and more at etisennyc.com
