Our Story

Three generations of the Burke family coming together to create bags that tell stories, honor heritage, and embrace the future.

The Burke Family Legacy

Founded in the heart of Greater Portmore, St. Catherine, LaBurke Designz began as a dream shared by three family members: Lorna, Ackmine, and John Burke. Each brought their unique skills and passion to create something truly special.

What started as weekend crafting sessions in our family garage has grown into a respected brand known throughout Jamaica for quality, style, and sustainability. We believe that every bag should serve a purpose beyond just carrying belongings—it should carry stories, memories, and pride.

Our mission extends beyond creating beautiful bags. We're committed to showcasing Jamaican craftsmanship on the world stage while maintaining our responsibility to the environment and our community.
