TRANSPARENCY AND TRACEABILITY

We want you to know the complete story behind our products and how we price them. We believe it is important to share our costs with you as well as how we reinvest our profits. You will be able to see who we support within our community and the stories that follow.

The true product cost can be broken down into three parts: natural materials, ethical payment for labor, and other related costs. We try to sell as much as possible directly to our customers, but Aketekete may also be sold through our retail partners. This ensures our artisans have steady work.
