Greetings!
I am Pakhi Beri, I initiated Kopahi as an enterprise to promote the exotic fabrics of Assam, India such as the organic cotton, Assam Silk and Erandi or Eri, the home spun yarns and fabrics of rural Assam. Kopahi has initiated hand holding with the local weavers at the grassroots focusing the Women with Disability (WWD) who are skilled in the age-old industries of Assam but lacking in resources and facing challenges of poverty and disability every day. We have direct contact with the weavers with disability who are excited to be engaged and for being meaningful contributors to the income in the families.

Kopahi was created by yarns of inspiration. It is a constant work of passion. Like every yarn might have knots, these knots were like hurdles but that’s what made this journey more worthwhile. It is like interlocking passion, dreams and vision creating beautiful patterns just like Kopahi fabrics are woven by amazing and most talented Weavers and artisans.
Kopahi is taking a stand to protect, preserve and promote handloom. We are all for empathy and empowering the women with disability earn respect at the community.
Kopahi in Assamese language means cotton which is the enviable asset of India.
