1. design

our founders anna and jula still do all of the design work themselves. they are mastering that challenge, despite living in two different countries. luckily they're pros at long-distance teamwork.

so the design process is split between hamburg and dubai.

2. raw material

since the average cotton production is a pretty dirty business, we only use organic and recycled cotton.
if you wanna know more about the ecological benefits, compared to regular cotton. the cotton is grown in india.

3. yarn production

no matter which fibers we are talking about, they have to be spun into a yarn for further production steps.

the yarn production takes place in portugal.

4. fabric production

the next step of our supply chain is to weave the yarn into a fabric.
the fabric production is located in barcelos, portugal.

5. manufacturing

that's where all the magic happens!
our manufacturers receive the patterns, fabrics, andother components like buttons or zippers and make them into a garment.

this piece is made in barcelos, portugal.

6. distribution 

jan n june ships the products to us in one big shipment. we split our stock into our store and our little storage.

we send out our orders via swiss post.

a bottle of wine, hamburg, summer 2013. that’s when it all started with the question “why is there no stylish, sustainable, and affordable fashion label?”. anna and jula couldn’t find the kind of fashion label they were looking for, so they simply decided to start their own. and all that while living in three different countries. piece of cake right? today jan 'n june is a sustainable fashion success story. all their items are fairly and transparently produced in portugal and poland, using only sustainable materials such as organic cotton, recycled polyester, lyocell, and many more. each and every one of their final items are provided with a qr-code showing its eco-id, from the supply chain to final production.  

fashion, but make it slow.
