Vikani-Ubuntu Team Up with Metal Concentrators
Vukani-Ubuntu is one of the most important examples of beneficiation through fair trade jewelry manufacturing in the world. Widely supported by government and corporations, the project trains South African villagers fully into the commercial jewelry production, from fabrication and production to business skills.
Managed by my friend, the dynamic and magnificent Demos Takoulas, this project continues breaking ground, this time with its announcement of its alliance with Metal Concentrators. Their announcement is provided as a PDF below.
To learn more, you can visit Vikani Ubuntu’s website, or read the past interview on this blog with Lourens Mares, CEO of the Jewelry Council of South Africa.
Any company wishing to manufacture in South Africa through fair trade needs to contact Vukani-Ubuntu. ~Marc Choyt, Publisher.
