A Fair Trade Shop for a Fair Trade City

Carlisle World Shop was established in 2003 in order to make a difference in the world.

It is our mission to provide a wide variety of ethical, environmentally-friendly, fairly traded products sourced from otherwise marginalised, small producers throughout the majority world.

We carry an extensive range of remarkable, handmade items, and top-quality food and drinks, and each purchase has a verifiable, positive impact on the lives of artisans and farmers the world over.

Purchases benefit card-makers in Rwanda, jewellery-artists in Mexico, olive-growers in Palestine, and loom-weavers in India, to name but a few examples.

We also work to raise awareness about Fair Trade generally, educating customers about the way in which Fair Trade helps equalise otherwise unfair trading practices, tackling injustices such as child-labour, gender-inequality, unfair wages, and unsafe working conditions.

Carlisle World Shop is proud to be a founder member of the Carlisle Fair Trade Steering Group which played a key role in the successful campaign to make Carlisle a Fair Trade City.

We continually strive to promote partnerships between Fair Trade producers, our customers, and our wider community overall.
