LET'S BE PART OF THE STORY
We preserve the craft tradition and create opportunities for Vietnamese artisans by bringing their products and stories to the world through long-term, fair trading relationships.

Terra is the other name for Earth.
We take MadeTerra as our brand name because our products use natural ingredients and
are produced by authentic traditional handicraft methods.
In the original Latin, Terra means World. It reminds us that we are living in a world
where the top priority is to take care of one another
Weaving is often a quiet craft. The majority of makers work from their homes so they can watch over their children while they sleep or play nearby. Some women gather to chat and laugh together as they weave. Most of them learn this traditional skill from their mothers or grandmothers.
After passing quality assurance tests, the completed products travel from the handicraft villages to Hai Phong city (Vietnam) where they board a ship to cross the sea to the US.
At port it goes through customs and then is brought to Amazon warehouses in the US.
Then the products are posted in our online shop and Amazon.com website.
You spot that products you like. Then you decide to purchase knowing you will feel great about making an impactful purchase. You get an amazing handicraft product, our local makers have income and the craft tradition continues.
How do we know? We know, because we live here in Vietnam. We've experienced all the ups and downs of our handicraft villages firsthand, so we know the impact these purchases make
We work together to preserve indigenous legacies, all while while spurring innovation and designs that speak to craft- and culture-loving customers
Fair Trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers – especially in the South.
