World Shoppe works with several artisan cooperatives, non-governmental organizations and locally controlled small businesses in some 32 countries. The company is committed to:
- Providing work and income for the most economically disadvantaged artisans throughout the world;
- Promoting fair trade;
- Encouraging the empowerment of women and physically challenged individuals through raising their self-esteem, dignity and self-sufficiency;
- Creating a non-exploitive, supportive business environment in which women of different religions, ethnicities and ages can gain energy and learn to work together
- Protecting children's rights;
- And developing employment opportunities for many artisans, many of whom would not be employable in mainstream business.
