Welcome to the Vibrant World of Maison Suku
Maison Suku is a Fairtrade organization dedicated to creating beautiful handwoven home decor, storage baskets, and wall art. What sets us apart is our direct collaboration with skilled artisans in Africa. These talented women weave our creations with passion and craftsmanship, while also transforming their own lives and communities.
Creating a Positive Impact on Lives
At Maison Suku, we believe in fostering lasting change. That’s why we pay our weavers above-average wages, enabling them not only to support their families but also to contribute to the growth of their local economies. Our business model focuses on regular, consistent orders, providing artisans with steady work and a reliable income. This allows them to save, invest, and move towards greater opportunities that arise from a stable production market.
Building a Sustainable Marketplace
Together with our weavers, we are laying a strong foundation for a sustainable marketplace that serves as a source of community pride. Each of our wall hangings, home decorations, and storage baskets is woven using centuries-old techniques by artisans in rural Africa. The fair wages they earn circulate back into their community, creating a business with significant economic impact and fostering community pride and stability.
Sustainable Impact
Our commitment goes beyond economic benefits. We strongly believe in environmentally friendly practices. That’s why we use all-natural fibers, recycled plastic, and organic dyes in our products. These materials are not only eco-friendly but also ensure that each item is unique. In this way, we prioritize the planet while delivering beautiful, sustainable creations.
Education as the Key to a Better Future
At Maison Suku, we know that education is the key to a better future. That’s why we are proud to partner with the Little Hand Foundation. For every purchase, we donate 10% to this foundation, which aims to support underprivileged children in Africa in their studies. Since its establishment in 2015, the Little Hand Foundation has been working to remove the financial barriers that prevent children from completing their education. With their support and our contribution, these children have the chance to build a future and bring about positive change in their own lives and communities.
