Swahili African Baskets

Swahili Modern is a fair-trade company working directly with artisans in Africa to bring you handcrafted baskets, decor, & gifts since 1995. They are proud to be a member of the Fair Trade Federation. Swahili develops long-term relationships with artisan groups, which creates a reliable source of income for artisans. In many cases, artisans are able to earn a living from home, so they have options aside from leaving home to find work in cities. Crafting handmade products provides a vital employment option for rural African women in particular. Creating products from home, working between their daily home responsibilities, empowers rural women as earners.
