Our Heritage

Preserving Tradition,
Empowering Artisans

Founded in 1989 with UNICEF backing, Sana Hastakala has grown into a self-sufficient fair trade NGO working with over 1,200 artisan producers across Nepal — from the Kathmandu Valley to remote cooperative workshops.

Our artisans hand-make ceramics, felt goods, and woven textiles using techniques passed down for generations — sold to retail and wholesale buyers worldwide, always through WFTO-guaranteed fair trade practices.

Every purchase directly supports fair wages, safe working conditions, and the preservation of traditional Nepali craft skills for future generations.
