Village Goods is a volunteer-supported not-for-profit social enterprise. We have been in Edmonton since 1986, first as a part of Ten Thousand Villages Canada, now independent. We are owned and operated by the Edmonton Ten Thousand Villages Society, and we are proud to be a verified member of the Fair Trade Federation. The Fair Trade Federation explains that Fair Trade is “an approach to business and to development based on dialogue, transparency, and respect that seeks to create greater equity in the international trading system.”

According to the World Fair Trade Organization, “Fair Trade Enterprises across the world are producing and trading, campaigning and educating for a better world. Their direct impact includes 965,700 livelihoods supported through the operations and supply chains of these enterprises. 74% of these workers, farmers and artisans are women and women make up the majority of the leadership. They pioneer upcycling and social enterprise, refugee livelihoods and women’s leadership. These enterprises show a better world is possible.”
