Fair Trade Businesses
Daughters' Fair Trade businesses employ girls under Fair Trade conditions; they are paid above average wages and work a 35-hour week maximum. Many other free benefits are provided, including free medical and therapeutic treatment, day care, educational workshops, and regular creative and fun activities, such as expressive art workshops, dance classes etc. Girls are promoted to positions of responsibility and leadership if they show aptitude.
Currently we have 4 small businesses: sewn products, t-shirts (construction and printing) , cake decorating, and jewellery production.
Our fashion accessories and home furnishings ranges are produced using a hand-woven cotton which is entirely natural and eco-friendly. Produced by Goel, a local fair trade manufacturer, the cottons are hand-dyed using 100% natural local dyes. We also make a number of products from recycled textiles, including jewellery and home ware.
We are constantly looking for new markets overseas for our products. If you are interested in finding out more about our products or wish to receive our catalogue please contact us by email: design@daughterscambodia.org
