🌍 An African Roots Collection
A Creative Collaboration Between NC Southside & Grace and Grit Printing
At Grace and Grit Printing, we love supporting fellow small businesses and celebrating creativity!
As a South African family-owned business in Portugal, we're excited to collaborate with Nicolette Coetzee of NC Southside, a talented fellow South African creative who also calls Portugal home.
Nicolette brings her unique African-inspired designs, while we bring them to life through our printing and production services.
Together, we're combining our talents, supporting each other's businesses, and creating something special right here in Portugal!
❤️ Two South African businesses. Two creative strengths. One exciting collaboration!

We believe every creator deserves recognition, so we'd love to introduce you to Nicolette in her own words!
Carrying Africa, One Design at a Time 🌍
Every bag starts with an idea, a thought, a place, or a little piece of Africa that deserves to be celebrated.
I use AI as my creative tool, guided by my own words, ideas and vision, to bring each African-inspired design to life. From bold colours and beautiful landscapes to cheeky sayings and cultural influences, every design is created with the intention of making you smile, connect and carry a little piece of Africa wherever you go.
These aren't just tote bags.
They're conversation starters.
They're memories you can carry.
They're a little bit of Africa with you, wherever life takes you.
Whether you're proudly African, missing home, love the continent, or simply fell in love with its spirit — there's a design waiting for you.
Carry your story. Carry your culture. Carry Africa.
