Vintage inspired & artisan made. Our clothing and jewelry are designed in Chicago and handcrafted by fair trade women’s cooperatives and artisan groups. Mata Traders is a fair trade clothing and accessories company based in Chicago, Il. All of our products are designed locally and handmade in India and Nepal by women’s cooperatives and artisan groups.
Our products are handmade using artistic traditions such as block-printing and embroidery…no factory production here. Combine that with flattering design and a flair for color, and you’ve got the Mata look.
But that’s just half the story – this is fashion with impact. For our producers, it’s an opportunity to make a better life for their families. Choosing fair trade means you’re helping fight global poverty.
