Cool Trade Winds are a small fair trade importer based in Hampshire. We stumbled across them at a trade fair in February 2012, and were immediately drawn by the contemporary designs and high quality of their scarves (and they are a nice bunch of people too!)

Their scarves come in a variety of luxurious materials, including silk, cashmere and merino wool, and they produce great looking scarves that will complement your wardrobe perfectly.

What Cool Trade Winds say about themselves…

We are importers and distributors of Fair Trade scarves and accessories.

Our Mission:

"To be proud supporters of Fair Trade not aid! Through our trade with social welfare factories and small family run businesses, we ensure that the artisans, who have come from disadvantaged backgrounds in developing countries, can support their families and are treated with dignity and the respect they deserve. These are talented women who are keeping alive traditional skills that would otherwise be lost."

Established over 10 years ago, Cool Trade Winds is entering an exciting new era following founder Patricia Vignerswaren's decision to retire and sell the business to Natalie Ball. Natalie is actively promoting the company ethos that all of the products sourced should be fun, colourful, unique and above all ethically sourced and using 100% natural fibres or natural fibre blends.

We are a small home based business.

We keep all stock at home, so when you place an order, we don't have to travel to collect or package your items. It's all done in our home office.

We package the majority of our goods in recycled plastic mailing bags. Originally we started doing this to protect against rainwater, but now it means you have the option to disinfect the package when it arrives in your home.

We have been strictly observing the government's advice and have been socially distancing - staying in apart from for essential trips - since 16 March.

As far as we can be sure, nobody who lives in or has visited our home has been ill since the outbreak hit the UK.

We use the Royal Mail and very occasionally Parcelforce for deliveries. We have a "Drop & Go" account so we don't have to wait in line or get within 2 metres of anyone when we post out your goods. As long as our local post offices are open, and we remain well, we will get your orders out. Like a lot of essential services, the Royal Mail is under pressure with staff self-isolating, so your parcel may not arrive as quickly as you would normally expect, None of this is normal, but we'll get through it together.

Artisans and producers in low income countries rely on fair trade to support their families. Fair trade has helped build some resilience into the communities we help in the form of better hygiene and sanitation, better nutrition and healthcare support. Most of the countries where our goods originate have banned exports and imports to limit the spread of the virus. This means workers are unable to get their work to us, and in some cases their workshops are closed. Our suppliers are continuing to pay for and place orders to keep their producers going through what we hope is a very short-lived period in our lives. In contrast, high street fashion companies in the UK have cancelled $1.5bn in orders with garment factories in Bangladesh, putting thousands of low paid women out of work.

The need for fair trade has never been clearer. Thank you for your support and stay safe and well.
