Why Fair Trade?
Shop with Heart and Make a Difference!
Fair Trade began over 75 years ago as a powerful response to inequality, poverty, and injustice—challenges that still affect our world today. Fair Trade empowers each of us—whether shopping for ourselves or for gifts—with a practical way to bring more justice and beauty into our world.
As conscious consumers, Fair Trade aligns with our values by putting people and the planet first. Every time you choose Fair Trade, you’re supporting talented artisans or farmers who pour their passion into everything they create or grow food through sustainable agriculture.
So, the next time you’re shopping for a gorgeous Fair Trade handicraft, clothing, jewelry, coffee, or a delicious chocolate bar, feel good! And know you’re making a meaningful difference in a simple way while bringing a little extra love and goodness into your home.
At Lucuma Designs, Fair Trade is at the heart of everything we do. It guides us and inspires us to keep learning and improving. To us, each Fair Trade gift is an ambassador of hope and joy, connecting people across cultures and uplifting artists and their communities.
Fair Trade is more than just a label—it’s compassion in action, a celebration of our humanity, resilience, sustainability, and an opportunity to be part of a global movement that is creating positive change.
So please make every purchase count! You have the power to brighten your day and someone else’s halfway across the world.
