Artisan Story
Artisans are working with It’s a Small World-Global, a Canadian based company out of Burlington, Ontario. It’s a Small World began just over 10 years ago to work with independent artisans and self-help community groups around the globe under Fair Trade principles. This allows the artisans to expand into new markets in order to sell their goods outside of their local area.
