Ganesh Himal Trading - Fair Trade From Nepal Since 1984
Ganesh Himal Trading has been working with producer groups in Nepal since 1984. By assisting in product development, purchasing and importing these artisans’ products, this organization has created mutually beneficial, long-term partnerships with low income, refugee and fair trade artisan groups in Nepal. The principles of fair trade are central to Ganesh Himal Trading’s philosophy and the way they do business.
Since 1984, Ganesh Himal Trading has supplied shops and retail customers in North America with high quality, handcrafted clothing, jewelry, textiles, and paper. Ganesh Himal Trading imports directly from small cottage industries in Nepal, including development projects working to improve the lives of Tibetan refugees and women. Also, Ganesh Himal Trading has worked with many of their producer groups for over 20 years.
Ganesh Himal Trading’s mission has always been to support work that enhances people’s lives and traditions. Ganesh Himal Trading works directly with the producers as a team, expanding each other’s talents and ideas and believes that it is rewarding to work with such skilled artisans who enjoy what they do and to know that they realize a fair return for their work.
At The Fair Trader, we are committed to bringing you beautiful goods that have been created under the principles of the Fair Trade movement. Every hand-crafted item that we carry reflects the artisan’s pride and passion for art and for the Fair Trade concept. We think that the stories of our artisans and the groups they work with are some of our most important messages. We want you to know these wonderful craftspeople as well, so we offer these pages as a way to share their stories and vision with you.
