Bethlehem Tilahun and the story behind SoleRebels[

she is not hear she talk about shoe but coffee /color]


Meet Bethlehem Tilahun founder of SoleRebels, our 23rd #MellaMonthly speaker. From the humblest of beginnings, Bethlehem has built SoleRebels into the planet's fastest-growing African footwear brand and the very first global footwear brand to ever emerge from a developing nation. She has created world-class jobs and empowered her community and country, whilst presenting a galvanized, dynamic face of African creativity to the global market.
Bethlehem was born and raised in the Zenabwork/Total area of Addis Ababa, one of the most impoverished and marginalized communities of Ethiopia. Growing up Bethlehem saw that Ethiopia had plenty of charity “brands” but not a single global brand of its own, so she set out to change all that. In early 2005, fresh out of college in Addis Ababa, Bethlehem founded the trailblazing footwear company soleRebels to provide solid community-based jobs. Tapping into her community’s and the nation's rich artisan wealth and heritages, Bethlehem started re-imagining what footwear could be.
Many shoes and hundreds of creative, dignified and well-paying jobs later, soleRebels is the planet's fastest-growing African footwear brand and the world’s first and only World Fair Trade Federation [WFTO] Fair Trade certified footwear company. Constantly elevating the idea of what her brand can achieve, Bethlehem has led soleRebels to become the first-ever brand from a developing nation to open branded, stand-alone retail stores around the globe including in Asia and the EU.
