Featuring hand made products from more than 130 artisan groups in some 30 countries, we are part of a network of over 390 retail outlets throughout the United States selling Ten Thousand Villages products. As one of the world’s oldest and largest fair trade organizations, Ten Thousand Villages has spent more than 70 years cultivating trading relationships in which artisans receive a fair price for their work and consumers have access to distinctive handcrafted items. We seek to establish long-term buying relationships in places where skilled artisans are under- or unemployed, and in which they lack other opportunities for income. A founding member of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO), Ten Thousand Villages sees fair trade as an alternative approach to conventional international trade. This local board oversees the operations of the three Cincinnati area stores. Located at 2011 Madison Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45208; 11316 Montgomery Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45249; & 610 Main St, Covington, KY 41011. Combined these stores have annual revenues a little under $1M.
