information DESCRIPTION

The One World Shop is a pioneering fair trade organisation. We're based in Scotland and have been sourcing and selling the very best in fairly traded products from around the world since 1983.

We sell a wide range of handmade crafts, jewellery, textiles, interior furnishings, furniture, toys, clothing, ceramics, handmade paper products, cards, books and foods; a lot of our products are also organic.

We engage regularly in educational activities in schools, community groups and faith based groups as well as promoting fair trade in the workplace.

We also support schools, faith communities and local businesses in adopting and promoting fair trade.

While we continue to expand the fantastic range of Fair Trade products we stock in the shop we also provide services for schools, community groups and businesses.

We nurture volunteers and advocate for and provide education about Fair Trade.

Our aim is to reduce poverty in poor areas of the world through trading fairly. We sell foods and gifts which are produced by farmers and craft workers who:

- Receive a fair price for their work
- Have access to good working conditions
- Often benefit from a social premium for their community
- Are not exploited by their employers

By shopping with us, donating or volunteering you are helping to make the world a fairer place. All of our stock is fair trade (with the exception of our multicultural range of CDs, books and locally sourced soaps). We endeavour to support social enterprises and producers of ethical and environmentally friendly products.
