Ten Thousand Villages has grown from a small grassroots project to a global business network of social entrepreneurs, with more than 80 retail locations nationwide striving to meet a triple bottom line goal of social, economic and environmental responsibility.

Ten Thousand Villages’ fair trade mission brings dignity and opportunity for a better quality of life to artisan partners. The Nashville store is an exceptional source for unique, handmade gifts, jewelry, home décor and personal accessories made by artisans in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. Product sales help pay for food, education, healthcare and housing for artisans who would otherwise be unemployed or underemployed.
