DIFFERENT
Values based, from the ground up
#FairTrade, #FairPay, #Sustainable... sometimes it seems like a lot of brands toss these hashtags and buzzwords around like confetti without showing us a transparent view into the impact they say they have.
​
We wanted to take things several steps forward and truly allow our customers and clients a clear view into what we mean when we say we trade fairly, pay equitably, and create long term profitable growth for our artisan partners.
​
We understand how saturated these subjects may seem considering the landscape of these kinds of conversations. And while efforts by others are valid and necessary, many times, the intention of the impact falls flat. There are several reasons why this happens, which we will help you understand as you navigate through this page.
​
Because we understand the nature of the profound challenges of working with these kinds of groups, we also know how to manage them and have successfully integrated this layer of partnership into our business model.
