Website: Expedition Subsahara
The Breakdown: Sofi Seck, originally from Senegal, West Africa, runs Expedition Subsahara out of St. Charles, MO. She opened her business to support the education of young girls in Senegal by selling products that are authentically made by African artisans — herself included. Expedition Subsahara's brightly-coloured baskets and statement-making placemats add an instant dose of cheer to any room.
