Artisan Crafted Handbags
For nearly two decades, Mercado Global has transformed the lives of Indigenous women and their families in Central America. We thoughtfully design fashion accessories in partnership with our artisans and world-renowned retailers — empowering the women who weave our collections and inspiring the women who wear them. Together, we have worked to make the fashion world more ethical, sustainable, and just — for all of us.
These women are now Mercado Global Artisans
99% of our partner artisans children are in school, compared to only 35% of other children in rural Guatemala.
Our artisans receive sewing machines and footlooms, allowing them to start their own businesses and gain financial independence.
