1. design

jan n june's 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, jan n june only use organic and recycled cotton.
if you wanna know more about the ecological benefits, compared to regular cotton, click jan and june's article here. 

the cotton is grown in turkey.

3. yarn production

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

the dying takes place in portugal.

4. fabric production

the next step of jan n june's 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!
jan n june's manufacturers receive the patterns, fabrics, and other components like buttons or zippers and make them into a garment.

this piece is made in wroclaw, poland.

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.
