The Maker Story: Crafted by marginalized producers in rural and urban areas of Kenya, the makers take pride in the product ideas they are able to develop and market through Fair Trade partners. Our makers are self employed men and women, largely young and middle aged, who have struggled to get formal employment. They have thus had to seek employment in the jua kali (which translates into hot sun in the Swahili language) sector, and have created these charming products out of recycled tin and wire. They work in groups, or small family owned businesses.
