Born in 17th century Sweden, 'fika' emerged as a simple midday coffee ritual. Over time, it soon became an essential staple of Swedish culture—not just a mindful coffee break, but a daily pause from work and stress that brought people together and made space for life's simple pleasures. In fact, many Swedish companies actually have a clause in their work contracts that mandates their employees take fika breaks to promote general wellness, enhanced productivity, and mental rest.
Our world today is so fast-paced that taking the time to cherish small moments and enjoy well-deserved daily breaks grows exponentially more important with each passing day. Fika Social Club aims to help people everywhere to find balance in their lives and prioritize what truly matters.
Consider this your daily invitation to slow down and nurture your own personal well-being. Health and happiness go hand-in-hand with connection and presence – So whether it's a 15-minute break by yourself or a few hours with friends, “fika” is your permission to pause, breathe, and find your joy.
Fika Social Club also donates a percentage of profits to mental health nonprofits, so that each time you make a purchase, you aren't just getting your hands on comfortable and stylish gear – you can feel good knowing that you are helping to support the well-being of those around you.
