Fair Trade

Committed to

Buying fair trade products enables us to celebrate conscious consumerism and make a real difference in the lives of the world’s artisans.

“Fair Trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers – especially in the South. Fair Trade Organisations engage actively with consumers, in supporting producers, awareness-raising and campaigning for changes in the rules and practice of conventional international trade.”


Definition of Fair Trade, The International Fair Trade Charter

Overline text

We put people before profits and seek to use trade as a force for positive change.

We have personal relationships with all of our partners. 90% of them are members of the Fair Trade Federation or the World Fair Trade Organization and the other 10% come from our relationships with local artists.

We do business that builds equitable, long-term partnerships between producers in developing regions of the world and western consumers.
