About the Makers

Quick Facts

The people that make our products work in conditions that comply with the 10 Principles of Fair Trade, including receiving a fair wage, safe work conditions, and no child or forced labour
The vast majority of the people that make our products are women. Receiving a fair income means that the women don't have to depend on their husbands or male family members financially. It also means they can afford education for their children, which has a far-reaching impact on the whole community. The World Bank states keeping girls in the classroom for as long as possible is crucial in the fight to eradicate global poverty
We stock products that are made in over 20 different countries, including Australia
Every single one of our products is uniquely handmade
Many of our makers use traditional craft techniques, processes, and materials or ingredients, which ensures traditional skills and cultural knowledge are kept alive
Our Aboriginal Art suppliers are members of the Indigenous Art Code, which preserves and promotes the ethical trade of Indigenous Art. Artists receive royalties for every sale
