Tidy up the dressing table with these three useful square baskets hand-woven from palm leaf. With the money earned from fair trade sales, the male producers of these baskets can afford to send their children to school, an inspiring example of how fair trade changes people's lives. Made in Malawi by Development Trading Limited.
"So far I have used the money from Traidcraft to buy food and clothes for my family. I have not been able to do anything concrete yet, but if Traidcraft keeps buying the baskets, I would want to build a better house with burnt bricks and also set up a stall where my wife could sell things while I am making baskets." Amali Jinga, Mangochi Basket Weavers, Development Trading, Malawi.
Development Trading was established in 2000 to extend development and fair trade to disadvantaged and vulnerable groups in Malawi.
