Handicraft Cooperatives

Handicraft cooperatives are collective organizations where artisans and craftspersons come together to produce, market, and sell handmade goods such as textiles, pottery, or jewelry. By pooling resources, skills, and networks, members can access better materials, share knowledge, and reach larger markets. These cooperatives promote fair wages, preserve traditional crafts, and empower local communities economically. Essentially, they create a supportive structure that benefits artisans while providing consumers with authentic, handcrafted products.
