Global Initiative Fair Trade Store (G.I.F.T.S.)  —  163 Station Street, Duncan, BC

«   Our Mission   »

As part of the FAIR TRADE network G.I.F.T.S. sells crafts, artwork, clothing, coffee, etc. from producers around the world who are guaranteed their fair share of the value of their work.

We are non-profit, returning proceeds from sales to the communities we buy from to enhance their working and living conditions. Therefore, shopping at G.I.F.T.S. isn't about comparison shopping or bargain hunting, it's about supporting the initiatives of the individual Cooperatives below  —  NEIGHBOUR to NEIGHBOUR.
