Our clients
We work with a wide range of organisations in Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America who believe that trade can have a positive impact on poverty.
"We felt Traidcraft's Market Access Centre was the perfect solution. Their training team has tons of experience in working with small businesses. We decided to hire Traidcraft as consultants for the first year of the project to help get us on the right track."
Claire McGuigan, Christian Aid (July 2007)
