ETHICALLY MADE
At the heart of CCP, we hope to build a legacy for female artisans through partnership and collaboration, and it is key to our long-standing commitment to pursue this goal. It is important for our team to fully immerse ourselves in the craft communities we partner with, and believe that strong relationships flourish through respect for one another and transparency by providing dialogue and support in working towards a mutually beneficial outcome.
By building sustainable business practices through partnership and collaboration, we aim to secure the future of the craft community, and we hope to enable a valuable sense of independence for the women we partner with.
Our Founder
With more than two decades of product design and development experience, and a strong passion for sustainable and authentic interior design, Jane’s natural design aesthetic has allowed her to create CCP’s signature collections, as well as work on many regional installations in the hospitality sector.
Collaborative Craft Projects was born out of Jane’s desire to bring the community into her craft, and CCP now offers both customised product development and training programmes for implementation in rural communities, as well as wholesale opportunities for the trade through the export range.
