Sanyork Fair Trade | Fair Trade | Made in Mexico

Fair trade wages and a positive work environment have empowered artisans to preserve their cultural traditions, lifestyle, and dignity. Through long-term partnerships, many artisans have improved their quality of life. Sanyork Fair Trade, Inc. remains dedicated to improving quality and consistency while promoting traditional crafts worldwide, offering exceptional gifts, accessories, and apparel.

Our market bags are crafted from 100% recycled materials, using polypropylene made from recycled soda and water bottles. The filament is dyed quickly and woven on handmade looms, with artisan families stitching the bags at home. This approach creates sustainable employment by transforming recycled materials into practical totes. Two artisan families in Puebla, Mexico produce these bags, some of which are printed after weaving. For over 12 years, Sanyork has provided steady orders, enabling these families to support and educate their children within their communities. The engineer who designed the recycling machine and built the looms is part of one of these families.
