ABOUT US

We are a social enterprise based in Jalisco, Mexico, with over a decade of experience facilitating collaborations between artisan workshops and brands from various sectors. At TEKITI, we believe in the transformative power of craftsmanship, which is why we work to ensure it becomes a dignified source of income for the millions of people who dedicate their lives to it.

  • We are a project of fair-collaborative relationships, seeking shared growth and creating commercial alliances between artisan workshops and different industries.

 

  • Crafts become a source of decent, safe, inclusive, and sustainable work that presents opportunities for economic growth and personal and collective development for Mexican artisans.

METHOD OF ALLIANCES

At TEKITI, we work with a shared growth model, collaborating with independent business units led by artisans deeply committed to their communities. Each leader specializes in a different craft technique that is part of our cultural heritage and brings the vision, drive to grow, and ability to guide their team with responsibility.

We support their development by providing tools that strengthen their processes, care for the spaces where creation happens, and build agreements that allow us to move forward together toward a common goal. Along this journey, we also collaborate with brands that share our vision: to create social impact through ethical, transparent, and sustainable business relationships. Together—brands and workshops—we weave real opportunities for growth for everyone involved.

We currently work in:

  • 10 states: Guanajuato, Jalisco, Michoacán, Oaxaca, Guerrero, Chiapas, Yucatán, Puebla, Nayarit, and Tabasco.
  • We colaborate on more than  35 ARTISANAL TECHNIQUES
