April was a crazy month at Tchoup! We launched a new bag, went to lots of markets, had our one year anniversary, and celebrated with friends at our Open House. We’ve loved meeting fans and getting great New Orleans-made bags in to the hands of folks from all over the world. Thanks for a great first year, we hope to have many more to come!
A little of what we’ve been up to:
Tchoup Open House:
We loved celebrating our first year with friends, old and new. So many thank yous are in order; to anyone who has bought (and loved) Tchoup bags, Swamp Pop and Good Eggs for our great local party snacks, DJ Yes Kate Yes for keeping us dancing, and Pierre L’Esprit for being our ever-so-charming mascot.

Louisiana Bucket Brigade Earth Day Fest, NOLA:
Earth Day was the first festival we participated in, just to test Tchoup as an idea. We came back this year with the (Captain Planet approved) Le Tour Purse premier and haven’t looked back. This year’s fest included solar powered daiquiri’s, saving the world one drink at a time is the New Orleans way.
