Welcome to Bishopston Trading Company's website. March 2010

We are a Pioneer Fair Trade company.

SPRING COLLECTION 2010

This season’s inspiration comes from the Navajo desert’s sandstone with all it's shades from russet to rose, pumpkin, peach and orchid. The Navajo people’s exquisite turquoise jewellery and woven blankets and the sagebrush, tumbleweed and cactus.

We obtain our organic cotton from Gujarat in North India where it is grown from non GM seed and is independently certified as Fairtrade by the Fairtrade Foundation. Our main fabric is hand woven in KV Kuppam, helping to support this traditional industry. We also use denim and calico produced by power looms in KV Kuppam from Fairtrade certified yarn.
Our corduroy, velvet and crochet are also all Fairtrade organic cotton.

The clothes are made exclusively to our design by a team of 220 cutters, tailors, hand finishers, embroiderers and craft workers and a further 80 hand weavers.


** We still have some clothing from our Winter 2009 Collection - see our Special Offers category and pick up a bargain or two.**

Orders placed online or by telephone will be normally be dispatched within 2-3 days except during our busy sale when you should allow a few more days.
