Ten Thousand Villages in Winter Park is very proud to be a part of one of the oldest and largest fair trade organizations in the world. With 60 years of experience, Ten Thousand Villages is a global network of social entrepreneurs working to empower and provide economic opportunities to artisans in developing countries.

At Ten Thousand Villages, fair trade means:
A fair price
Artisans set the price for all of their products, covering labor, materials and a livelihood with dignity.
Cash advances and prompt final payments
Artisans receive up to 50 percent in cash advances when an order is placed, and payment in full when an order is shipped.
Long-term relationships
Artisans can plan for the future with consistent orders from year to year.
Design assistance
