Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Maddy Hoffmann. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Alright, Maddy thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Let’s start with a story that highlights an important way in which your brand diverges from the industry standard.
At Mahloe, we understand the importance of preserving our oceans and reducing plastic waste. By choosing Mahloe, you are supporting a brand that values sustainability and ethical practices. We believe in the power of conscious consumerism and strive to make a positive impact on the environment by offering plastic free packaging. Our plastic free packaging consists of Australian dried native flowers, debossed material Mahloe pouches and recycled water dyed tissue paper, all enclosed in a recycled cardboard box. In addition to this sustainable practice, we have recently been working with the Great Barrier Reef Foundation to fundraiser and spread awareness about the state of our coral reefs, our aim is to make a positive impact on breaking Black Friday traditions by promoting sustainability rather than endorsing consumerism and fast fashion.
Our collections feature a wide range of unique and one-of-a-kind designs, meticulously crafted to capture the essence of the ocean. From delicate pearl pendants to intricate seashell earrings, each timeless piece tells a story that embodies and honours the ocean in all of her moods. Our team takes immense pride in creating bespoke designs that are not only captivating but also ethically sourced. Unlike many companies we like to honour the circle of life, and do so by only ever sourcing fossilised coral, fossilised shark teeth and hand collected shells. Through this process we ensure that no living creature is harmed whilst also create an opportunity for our customers to wear a little piece of fossilised ocean history.
When you choose to support Mahloe you are not just purchasing jewellery; you are joining a community that values sustainability and appreciates the beauty of nature. Our commitment to plastic-free shipping, working with customers on custom pieces and sustainable sourcing methods reflects our dedication to reducing our environmental footprint and creating a better future for our planet.

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
What sets us apart is our commitment to quality and durability. We understand the unique challenges that come with wearing jewellery in the water, which is why we use only the finest materials to create our pieces. Our jewellery is designed to be functional, comfortable and withstand the ocean elements.

Do you have any insights you can share related to maintaining high team morale?
One key aspect of managing a team is clear communication. Establishing open lines of communication encourages transparency and allows team members to share their ideologies freely. We don’t believe in individual errors rather problems that our team needs to address together. We conduct regular team meetings and one-on-one discussions to help our team build strong relationships and fostering a positive work environment. Mahloe aims in promoting a healthy work-life balance, and in doing so we encourage employees to take “a beach day” when needed, feel guilt free when asking for holidays, offer flexible working hours, and provide support for personal well-being. We believe that all these elements combined is why we have such an amazing and happy team.
