Conrad, in collaboration with Hannah Skvarla, developed TLM to sustain artisans around the world. They feature everything from accessories to home decor. You can read more about the nonprofit, which is part of the Fair Trade Federation, on their about page.

Raven + Lily

I would be remiss if I didn’t include Austin-based Raven + Lily on this list! While R+L focuses on clothing and accessories, they have a number of cute pillows, linens, and candles in their “gifts” section.

Raven + Lily employs over 1,500 marginalized women and encourages them to invest back into their communities. The company is also committed to stopping resource waste, using recycled and repurposed materials. You can read the entire Raven + Lily store on their about page.

The Primary Essentials

Run out of a Brooklyn office, The Primary Essentials curates objects designed to amplify daily life. You can search the TPE website by independent artisan or by type of goods, yielding dozens of options across different price ranges. Their site proves that you don’t have to pay a fortune for high-quality pieces.

Ten Thousand Villages

Since its founding in 1946, Ten Thousand Villages has generated $140 million in sustainable income for its artisans. The company’s mission is to bring dignity to those working in developing countries.

Ten Thousand Villages works to reduce child labor, human trafficking, and economic uncertainty in business relationships. For a full list of why you should shop Fair Trade and specifically Ten Thousand Villages, check out this page on their website.
