Ever have customers who buy more produce than they can carry?  Or are you looking for beautiful new options to add color and unique designs to your on-farm retail?

One of our NAFDMA Industry Members, Gitzell Fair Trade, wants to help you with both of these options.  John Bryant, Sales Manager, shares this information about the company and their unique products. 

Gitzell Fairtrade is the absolute best source for African Harvest, Market and Produce Baskets and there are lots of reasons why.  We are BIPOC and woman owned. Zellipah Githui (the owner) came to America from Africa to attend college years ago and, as a child, learned to weave even before learning to read or write. She still spends significant time in Africa every year and works closely with the Artisans who create the baskets. Gitzell Fairtrade is a member of the Fair Trade Federation and Zellipah sits on the board as well. 

The Weavers in Africa operate Small Holder Farms and their basket weaving supplements their incomes significantly. We assist hundreds of families both by supporting their weaving efforts and by assisting in their farming efforts through the supply of seed and fertilizer.

Shipping from a warehouse in St. Charles Missouri, we typically have your order out within 24 to 48 hours. Customer service is handled by John Bryant from his office in Southern Oregon and John has worked in this position for over 20 years.  Gitzell Fairtrade currently provides baskets and home decor items from five different countries in Africa to Farms and Orchards, Farmers Markets, Natural Grocers and Food Co-Ops. We hope you will join our hundreds of satisfied customers!
