How we work
All our products result from the craftmanship and dedication of our artisans in Sierra Leone and the international designers that work with them. Every purchase supports local artisans and makes an impact in their community.
Sweet Salone is part of the non-profit Aurora Foundation.
ethically produced
We work directly with our artisans and have a long standing relationship with them. We pay them fairly for their work and support them to work in a safe and healthy environment.
sustainable
All our products are made from natural, renewable resources from Sierra Leone and we ensure that the production does not negatively impact the environment.
from sierra leone
We have been working with artisans from Sierra Leone since 2016. Despite the country´s incredible beauty and rich resource base, it has one of the lowest per capita income in the world.
handmade
All our products are handmade with the care and craftsmanship of the artisans making each product unique. You will always see who made your product on the tag that is on the product you receive.
Impact Assessment 2023
Everything we do is to empower the artisans we work with and help them create opportunities for themselves and their families. To make sure we are on track with our goals we do an impact assessment every year to assess our progress. We thank all of our artisans, designers, supporters and most of all our customers for their support.
