ZAAF Collection | Made in Africa 

Welcome to ZAAF, founded by Abai Schulze, whose journey from an Ethiopian orphanage to building a global brand fuels her passion for change. "ZAAF," meaning "tree" in Amharic, reflects growth, strength, and resilience—values at the heart of our mission to uplift African artisans and reshape the luxury industry.
More than a fashion brand, ZAAF is about celebrating Africa’s culture through world-class craftsmanship. With flagship locations at National Harbor, Maryland, and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, as well as a presence at BWI Marshall Airport, we’re bringing Africa’s artistry to the world.
By blending traditional techniques with modern design, ZAAF elevates African talent to compete on a global stage. We’re not just preserving heritage—we’re building Africa’s future, one handcrafted piece at a time.
Discover our wearable art that’s meaningful, impactful, and deeply rooted in Africa’s spirit—welcome to ZAAF.
FROM AFRICA TO THE WORLD, OUR ROOTS RUN DEEP AND OUR REACH IS GLOBAL.
