Shopping basket. More colors and Fair Trade from Ghana

Original oval shopping baskets are woven by Ghanaian women on Danish Fair Trade terms.

A basket is made of elephant grass and is the result of a long process and an ancient, traditional craft.

The majority of producers are vulnerable women who can neither read nor write and who primarily live by selling baskets. The area where the baskets are produced, Bolgatanga in northern Ghana, is characterized by extreme poverty.

There are Danish designers and artisans during the process, so the look and style are adapted to the Danish market.
