Global Exchange is a small but awesome store of fair trade items. Fair trade items are special because the workers arent exploitedthey receive fair treatment and fair compensation in the form of living wages. This is one of my favorite stores to browse in the entire world. The products tend to be handmade and of excellent quality. They are authentic objects of their respective cultures as opposed to mass-produced, generic products. This level of quality is slightly expensive but completely worth it. This is a great place to buy unique gifts.
PROS: fair trade
CONS: none
