The mission of Indochina Treasures is to offer good quality south Asian craft from Cambodia, Laos & Vietnam.   Those products do respect the standards of fair or socially responsible trading.

The objectives of Indochina Treasures are:

to import in Canada and to sell products coming from formal co-operative groups or abstract Community groupings;

  to encourage the setting-up of groupings of production and marketing;

to privilege approaches which make it possible the groups of production to improve their products when considered to be necessary and wished by the groupings;

to bring a support to the purchase of the inputs in order to allow the setting in production under the best conditions;

to guarantee the purchase prices before the setting in production;

to banish the child work not remunerated by height of the remuneration of the adults ;

to in general promote the schooling of the children and the girls in particular;

to encourage the respect of the environment in the manufacture of the various products.

 

The targets of Indochina Treasures are:

North-American public interested by the purchase of products of socially responsible or equitable quality;

nongovernmental organizations (NGO) interested by the sale of quality handicrafts coming from the South-East Asia.

 

Warning : Indochina Treasures will offer sometimes products which cannot be qualified socially responsible or equitable. These products will be identified by the mention: NCSR.
