Tyra Hodges and Melissa Parker founders of Tymel Style, LLC, a company dedicated to helping businesses, organizations and individuals become more conscious about the environment, recently participated in The Seventh Annual Social Venture Institute at The Union League in Philadelphia, PA. The conference was hosted by the Sustainable Business Network (SBN) and the Social Venture Network. The conference was dedicated to encouraging entrepreneurs to create wealth through environmental responsibility and positive social impact in the community. Tymel Style, LLC was selected out of numerous businesses to be the case study for one of the conference workshops.
Tymel Style’s signature product offering is a line of custom, high-quality, stylish reusable bags. They are made from recycled materials and display bright, bold, and creative patterns that make a design statement while providing an ecofriendly alternative to disposable plastic and paper bags. The bags are manufactured in ISO certified manufacturing facilities that utilize fair trade suppliers, treat their workers fairly, provide safe working conditions and pay above average wages. Commitment to fair trade principals, community outreach, and education of consumers about the importance of sustainable eco-friendly living are the hallmarks of this new company.
Tymel Style, LLC was launched in August 2008, after years of careful study and research, to address the need to bring eco-friendly products to consumers who wish to go “green” without sacrificing style and budget.
