Rita Umoren, Elsie Ifon - founders of Rimeks Bags and Brands

Who We Are

Founded by Rita Umoren alongside her sister, Elsie Ifon, visionary Nigerian women deeply inspired by Africa's rich cultural heritage. Surrounded by vibrant Ankara fabrics from a young age, Rita and Elsie developed a profound appreciation for their beauty. With a passion for celebrating African craftsmanship, they established RIMEKS BAGS & BRANDS Inc. in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. Rita, a resident of Cape Breton, Sydney, manages all day-to-day operations, infusing her passion for her community into every aspect of our brand.

Each piece reflects Rita's dedication, creativity, and commitment to quality, blending traditional techniques with contemporary designs. Today, we continue to honor African traditions while pushing the boundaries of modern fashion under Rita's visionary leadership.
