Edtex Batiks is a textile manufacturing company based in Tema, Ghana founded in 1998.

The core of their business is, as the name suggests, batik fabric – they produce for both the local fashion industry and for export. The team is headed up by Edwina Assan who has many years experience working as a textile designer.

Edwina is one of the textile designers that Ghanaian fashion designer Nana. K Brenu works with when he is producing collections for his brand 1981. Here you can see a piece that he created with the fabric being produced in the video:
