They are a pioneer of fair trade, they do business differently, putting people and the planet first.

Together we break the cycle of generational poverty and ignite social change. #LiveLifeFair
THE MAKER: Nepal Knotcraft Center trains, employs and empowers socially and economically underprivileged women in Nepal, giving them opportunities to earn an income and support their schooling. The organization started by training women in macramé knotcraft. Over the years, their product line evolved to include Dhaka weave textiles, cornhusk dolls, bamboo baskets and other natural fiber products, many drawing on local designs and traditions. With a product line made from mostly recycled and indigenous materials, Nepal Knotcraft Center’s products occupy a unique niche in the marketplace. The center runs a savings program for employees, and artisans receive bonuses when orders are sufficient. Literacy classes are offered to help empower the women. Ten Thousand Villages has purchased products from Nepal Knotcraft Center since 1988
