Fabricate was started in 2013 by Farzanah and Leila Badsha, starting with a successful pop-up shop in Cavendish Square and then moving to Gardens Shopping Centre.

With a growing collection of covetable local design brands and products, Fabricate has become the go-to gift shop for locals and tourists.

Farzanah and Leila collaborate with local designers to create an optimal platform to sell and showcase their products in a welcoming, exquisitely curated space.

All hand-made, the products sold by Fabricate offer great value and support the South African economy.

So, you get something unique and different from what you can get at big chains, where everything is the same and mass-produced.
