Soko
Soko is an online store that connects online consumers to global makers and handcrafted jewelry from the developing world. Through Soko, you can discover incredible design and creative ingenuity from communities that lay outside of the digital economy. An innovative global fashion technology solution, Soko was created by women for women to help “fashion a better world” through the equitable direct trade of beautiful goods between artisans in the developing world and web consumers worldwide. Working in bottom of the pyramid communities around the world, Soko realized that by leveraging technology and infrastructure in an innovative way, they could create a platform to enable any talented artisan to participate in international trade. Recognizing a global need, as well as global opportunity, to disrupt the systemic patterns of poverty found across the developing world’s creative economy.
Artisans design their own individual and unique products, mostly with natural, locally-sourced recycled and upcycled materials. Each independent artisan is supported in building their international market readiness through intensive on the ground capacity building, to ensure success and sustain the positive impact in their communities.
