Rapanui / Teemill
Rapanui is the leading sustainable fashion brand, created on the Isle of Wight by brothers, Rob and Mart Drake-Knight.
Starting out in their Mum’s dining room in the early 2000s, the brothers have now expanded to a large workforce, with a manufacturing plant in East Cowes and Head Office in Freshwater.
They also developed Teemill – a free-to-use platform that allows any brand to set up their own version of Rapanui.
Below are articles about Rapanui and Teemill.
