Target: Connect 20,000 artisans to clients by Q1 2027
For decades, millions of talented and skilled artisans across the world have handcrafted beautiful products; fashion, leather goods, pottery, woodwork, and more. Yet their work rarely goes beyond their local communities. They struggle with:
=> Limited visibility and inconsistent income
=> Unreliable payments and job cancellations
