Wereldwinkel Noordwijkerhout

The Wereldwinkel sells unique gifts and delicious food products from different cultures. Our products are fair trade, fair made, and sustainable. This helps create a fairer distribution of wealth in the world, reducing poverty, hunger, and inequality. Fair trade is transparent and based on sustainable relationships with producers. They receive a fair price, allowing them to invest in improving their livelihoods, their communities, and the future of their children. Your purchase helps support them.
Wereldwinkel Noordwijkerhout is a fair trade gift shop that sells authentic products with a modern touch from developing countries. The makers include Mexican coffee farmers, Balinese woodcarvers, and Thai ceramic artists. Some own small businesses, while others work in small factories. These are people who, like everyone else, have the right to housing, food, education, and medical care. In conventional trade, they often remain invisible and unheard, earning an irregular income that barely sustains them. In the Wereldwinkel, these makers can share their stories—how they create beautiful products with limited resources and what they need to improve their businesses. This way, they can build a better future.
Fair trade represents an equal way of trading, based on dialogue, transparency, and respect. The Wereldwinkel gives coffee farmers, woodcarvers, and ceramic artists a voice. With the income they earn from selling their products, they can build better lives—free from poverty and with more opportunities for development. The Wereldwinkels believe that global trade needs to change so that producers can have real opportunities. By selling these products, they show that trade can be done differently and offer Dutch consumers a choice. When you buy a gift from the Wereldwinkel, you contribute to the development of the makers.
The Wereldwinkel has ANBI status and is an organization run entirely by volunteers. Learn more about our store at https://noordwijkerhout.wereldwinkels.nl.
