Zanzibar Fair Trade

Zanzibar Fair Trade Retail and Wholesale Fairly Traded Imported Folkart and jewelry! Wholesale Showroom/Warehouse by appointment.
(220)

Inquiries welcome! 5450 Power Inn Rd Suite B Sacramento CA Here at Zanzibar Trading Company, we traverse the world over to bring back to our clientele fantastic finds in fairly traded native handicrafts, tribal artifacts, African and Asian art, the finest sterling silver and semi-precious stone jewelry and exotic elements for your home and gift giving. Visiting our store is like visiting a museum

- without having to pay and entrance fee! Our basic philosophy: Better, not cheaper, for the good of all people and the planet. We're not your typical import store - we do carry handicraft but we also carry many world-class museum quality pieces of artwork from famous, published artisans as well. Zanzibar values its long term relationships that we have developed with the artisans in over 100 countries throughout the years. We have always preferred to work directly with the artisans rather than go through traditional middle men and catalogs. So come in, browse and ask us what something is - where it comes from - or who made it! You'll be surprised at just how much stuff we fit (neatly) into our little store!

from 10am to 5pm

At Zanzibars new Showroom/Warehouse on Power Inn Road

Zanzibar Fair Trade
5450 Power Inn Rd
Suite B
Sacramento CA 95820

Just 1.5 miles south of Hwy 50/Howe Ave! Near Fruitridge

To be clear this will NOT be a Zanzibar sale - but us allowing our 20 plus year vendor of Talavera to sell directly to you! You will buy directly from the vendor - not Zanzibar and we do not make any profit or commission.

Scott's good friend (like family) Pepe will be doing the Sale He will accept CASH and has the ability to take Zelle (direct from you bank account) or Venmo (takes some credit cards but not all - please check before coming!) Cash is preferred

This sale is direct to consumer at wholesale prices (same price charged to nurseries and stores)

He will NOT be able to take credit cards or debit cards on site Zanzibar cannot accept credit cards on his behalf as it costs us over 4.5% to take credit cards. So come prepared with above payment methods

This event will be a buy direct from the maker - Zanzibar will not be making any profit or percentage of the sales but it'll help out our good friends who Zanzibar have bought Talavera from for over 20 years!

Zanzibar's showroom and warehouse will be open for purchases (yes credit cards accepted for our items) and we will serve drinks and snackies - so come visit us, tour the warehouse if you haven't been and shop from our showroom with hundreds and hundreds of unique and affordable imported and fairly traded items

We had one back in early April and it was a success! He almost sold out and will be bringing much more variety and more pieces this time! He and the pottery are in route from Mexico as I write this!

Note: Pottery shown is examples of what may be for sale only - exact pieces, colors and styles may vary
