What "On Sale" means at Global Goods Partners

At the very core, we believe in long-lasting and sustainable relationships, both with our partners and with our customer community.

As a nonprofit organization, a price reduction means, yes, we will not make as much revenue. But it also means you get to be part of our community - perhaps for the first time - and join us in creating change. If you would like, you can add a donation at checkout to cover the cost of your discount.

And remember, a discount for you does not equal a discount for the woman who made the product you purchased. We partner with small artisan groups and cooperatives in over fifteen countries, providing design assistance, operational expertise and an introduction to the global marketplace. Our commitment means we pay up-front for all the product you see on our site. Put simply, no sale will ever affect our artisan partners negatively.

As we sell through product on our site, we're able to continue sending orders and giving work to our network of over 6,000 women artisan worldwide. We stock up during the holiday season - by far our busiest time of year - so you can opt for gifts that bring lasting change, rather than products that perpetuate the cycle of over-consumption, poor working conditions and poverty in all corners of the world.

A gift from Global Goods Partners will be a mainstay in anyone's home, telling the story of its maker and the impact on her life.
