Here is what is bundled up in our wholesale fair trade products:
- Made by organizations that are members of the World Fair Trade Organization in Nepal. That means each product supports a range of social and economic benefits for the artisans and their communities. This assures no bonded labour has been used and social development is the primary outcome of these products.
- Lovingly handmade from the dye process, through to textile creation, felting and sewing. Unique aesthetic, quality, and originality.
- All of our dyes are Azo-Free. A safe and responsible choice for your customers.
- Many of our products can be personalized and adapted by your customer – This equals a good value purchase, uniqueness, playful adaptability, and sustainable fashion. It will also keep them coming back for more accessories!
- Fibres of Life is a social entrepreneur project. As such, we pay a respectable living wage to all our staff, advocate for fair trade and social justice, allocate 1% of all of our sales to fighting child labour in India, and 5% from the sale of our Dog Bones to the Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre in Nepal.
- We offer excellent communications materials to our retail partners to communicate the values behind the products – including our Poster, Bookmarks and Product Tags.
All this adds up to quality, fair trade ethics and unique style that demonstrates the positive values of your business to your customers.
