The Green Chic Bag Company was started by three friends from Portland, Oregon that joined in a single mission: to make “green” stylish. Their motivation was to reduce the impact of waste on the environment, and their creativity sparked the desire to design something simple yet chic.
Owners Christy, Theresa, and April are all mothers who take a particular interest in fashion and the environment. Each offers a special dynamic to the business.

Christy is the socialite that enjoys spending time meeting new people and finding new places. She comes from a career of marketing, is a wife, and a mother of two boys. |
 |
Theresa is a great people person and is able to strike up a conversation with anyone. She is also very creative and has chosen many of the bag designs. Theresa came from a career in management, she is a wife, a mother of five, and a grandmother of six. |
 |
April is quite business savvy and actually enjoys doing all the stuff Christy and Theresa would rather not do! She is a wife, mother of three girls, and came from a career in health care administration. |
The three women had always wanted to start their own business and some how incorporate their love of fashion with a product that was environmentally friendly. Dreams turned into reality when April had the idea to make reusable bags that were not plain, boring, and flimsy like most other options. From there, they brainstormed ideas for exactly what people want in a reusable bag. At the top of the list were: stylish and chic fabrics, strong and comfortable handles, water resistant liner,, large capacity, and ensuring that all materials were made in the USA and are biodegradable. After the list, the three women went to work designing a bag that met their expectations.
