Our Founder
My name is Jose, founder of JOAGO.
After studying environmental engineering and being in the oceans my whole life, I decided to start JOAGO to do whatever it is in my power to end ocean waste. At JOAGO, we envision a world of improved waste management wherein human activity does not hinder our ocean's ecosystems. We knew that the big corporations weren’t socially responsible and didn’t care about sustainability actively.
It was vital for us to reinvent the way products are made by seeing waste as a resource in the wrong place.
That’s why we create high-quality products that are made out of ocean waste that we collect, which are here to last & are consciously made.
We hope you love our products as much as we love making them for you.
Gracias,
Jose
Sustainability
We empower sustainable choices.
By embracing personal style over status-quo trends, we empower conscious consumers to buy quality over quantity (the only true answer to sustainability). That’s why we source our materials responsibly and design timeless silhouettes. We also maintain ethical factories and employ a strict code of conduct in our day-to-day operations. And we believe in giving back to our conscious community and fellow eco-friendly organizations.
Ocean Waste Management + Innovation
We stand to support sustainable efforts as a whole, but our focus is towards our oceans. With every aspect of the business, JOAGO supports ocean waste management.
Technological advancements are becoming the new catalysts for increasing sustainability. In production, we innovate to reduce the toxic impact of effluent generation on the planet, whilst promoting low-water consumption.
Building a community
We aim to be active participants in the sustainable community. Not only do we sell products but we question, learn, and attempt to solve environmental issues. We felt we had a duty to take a stance against the wasteful practices inherent in fast fashion, that is why we are building a community of like-minded ocean enthusiasts to associate with us in creating a substantial impact and join us to ride the sustainable wave ♻️🌊
