History
Grameen check was pioneered by Grameen Bank founder and Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Muhammad Yunus. The clothes and the designs were products of the same small-industry weavers he helped through Grameen Bank.
Economic impact on the manufacturers
Most of the fabric of grameen check comes directly from the traditional weavers of rural Bangladesh. The popularity of grameen check means that these small businesses are thriving and weavers (mostly from traditional weaver families) are earning money from the work they are good at, rather than having to migrate to towns and cities for other jobs.
