How do you ensure that small companies you work with or set up are sustainable?
There are always risks in business and some of our producers inevitably fail to become sustainable. However, Traidcraft works to reduce those risks by seeing how we can build capacity with good quality, low cost services and information and support.
We train trainers and look at both export and domestic markets to help small businesses become sustainable.
There is a section on producers in our Social Accounts which gives an idea of how we work towards sustainability of producer groups.
