about yalla trappan
Yalla Trappan is a work integration social enterprise and women’s cooperative that is run by a non-profit association in Rosengård in Malmö. Today Yalla Trappan employs more than 35 people and also takes trainees on for work introduction in our three areas of operation:
- Café and Catering Services
- Sewing Studio
- Cleaning and Conference Services
The aim of Yalla Trappan is to create jobs and increased financial independence for immigrant women who are far from the labour market. By recognising the great competence in the Yalla Trappan workforce and trainees, we have created a vital and stable operation defined by solidarity and a wealth of innovation.
Yalla Trappan creates job opportunities by selling our services to both individuals and businesses. We also work together with the public sector to increase the number of women who can enter the work force in satisfying ways. We have created our own successful model of ”learning by doing”.
Yalla Trappan’s operation is permeated by creativity and sustainability thinking. We offer our clients products and services of the highest quality.
By using our services you are contributing to the social sustainability of Malmö!
sewing studio
The Sewing Studio has grown significantly in only a few years. Today we batch produce different products, mainly household textiles, for businesses that value quality, communication and local services.
Close to Rosengård, at Sallerupsvägen 138D, you will find our Sewing Studio. Here highly skilled seamstresses work with modern equipment to fulfill your needs. We batch produce for businesses and designers, and also temporary production, depending upon volume.
Yalla Trappan has established a unique collaboration with IKEA that includes, among other things, performing sewing services at the IKEA shop in Svågertorp. Customers can buy fabrics in the textile department of IKEA and then directly order sewing services from the Yalla Trappan studio to meet their own specifications. The studio is located just to the right after the checkout counters.
In the spring of 2019 Yalla Trappan started a collaboration with H&M; an on-site mending, alternation and decoration service. The venture is called ”Take Care” and it is the only collaboration of its kind in Sweden. Located in the H&M store at Gustav Adolf Torg, Yalla Trappan staff are on hand to assist.

yalla trappan projects
y-allas väg till arbete
This is a collaboration between Yalla Trappan, the Swedish public employment service and Malmö Stad. The overall aim of the project is to promote higher employment and reduce alienation for foreign-born women who are far from the labour market.
yallas jämställda hem
The aim of the project is to provide unaccompanied immigrant youths knowledge of household skills and increased understanding of how Swedish society works.
The aim is for the youngsters to gain an understanding of equality and what it means in Swedish society. We help them learn how to make informed choices about their health, finances and the environment in positive ways, for themselves and the community.
The participants are given a secure base for the future as they develop individually and in a positive community while at the same time learning the fundamentals of dealing with a home and everyday life. We also practice the Swedish language.
