About Us

Our mission: To eradicate plastic bags in style!

We all have our favorite wardrobe staples - the little black dress, the tailored blazer, the great fitting pair of jeans, and now women all over America are coveting SAKitToMe , the ultimate eco-friendly compact bag which is the new must own, will use over and over, accessory.

In the U.S. alone, retailers give away over 100 billion plastic grocery bags annually, costing an estimated $4 billion - the impact? A legacy of irreversible damage to a resource we must fiercely protect - the environment. The bottom line? In the very near future your plastic bag habit could easily cost you hundreds of dollars a year.

Doing your part for the environment means thinking outside the bag, the plastic bag, and this season it’s all in the pouch. SAKitToMe is the brainchild of two Australian women who created an eco-hero on a key ring - the only bag for people on the go. Understanding that modern life can be hectic, the designers thoughtfully attached a storage pouch which converts to a mobile phone pocket and a key ring for SAKitToMe to be clipped to your keys so even the most eco-wise individual will never be caught without a reusable bag at the store again.

This ingenious little pouch is compact and stylish, comes in three collections (kid’s, earth & bloom, and bright & bold) totaling eighteen prints that hold up to 22 lbs each. And it’s not just for grocery shopping. The waterproof, durable bag can be used for swimming, sports, at the beach, picnics - a truly versatile bag.

SAKitToMe was designed by Australian owned business EnviroTrend who is on a mission to reduce unnecessary waste and spread the environmental message through creative design. US based business partners Vanessa Pennisi and Stacey Hamilton have now brought this successful Australian brand to the United States.

Recognizing shoppers should have more choices than the standard reusable bags at the grocery store, EnviroTrend is filling the gap in the market with a range of sturdy, practical bags featuring contemporary designs.
