Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Faire was founded to promote and expand Fair and Ethical Trade practices by exclusively selling ethically sourced items online. Faire is an effort to change the way consumers everywhere think about, and respond to, global poverty––and to change the way we buy things online everyday. Our site works like other major online marketplaces––it’s user-friendly and worldwide––but we exclusively sell ethically sourced merchandise. And, instead of being in competition with Fair and Ethical Trade retailers, producers, or wholesalers, we are trying to build a powerful platform designed to be the reliable “go to” for Fair and EthicalTraders everywhere; a platform that unites and serves a movement. At the heart of all Fair and Ethical Trade businesses are people who care deeply about the communities they are trying to help escape poverty. Fair Trade and other ethically sourced products are not about charity. They are about story telling, empowerment, sustainability, shared prosperity, and community. Ethical Trade is about humanity and origins. It is about a global exchange of ideas, and the currency of culture. Faire was built from the ground up based on the principle that sellers and producers are the most important part of what we do; they are the reason we exist, and our means for being able to exclusively sell ethically produced items made for fair wages. 20% of every transaction on Faire also goes directly to supporting the diverse needs of our seller community, and to fostering entrepreneurship in developing regions. Faire was created to help build a world where people everywhere can thrive in a dignified, sustainable way. We hope you’ll help us make Ethical Trade the new global standard.
