About Industree Foundation

Established in 2000, Industree Foundation holistically tackles the root causes of poverty  by creating an ownership-based, organized, creative manufacturing ecosystem for  micro-entrepreneurs. Industree works with a vision to co-create an ecosystem with  farmers, artisans, and stakeholders, creating a new way of building sustainable  enterprises and work culture. Industree Foundation’s comprehensive approach helps  communities assess their traditional skill base, organize them into production units,  develop products that appeal to modern markets, and create consistent demand to  create sustainable businesses at the lowest possible costs.

Our approach has tripled the incomes of artisans in non-farm occupations by leveraging  their artisanal skills and integrating them into the creative industries sector. The  Foundation believes that if the poor have access to sustained and consistent demand  for their products and services and are provided with an enabling ecosystem, they can  integrate into the formal economy and lift themselves out of poverty. We have reached  6,00,000 women artisans across India and Africa through collaborative efforts with  organizations like The Future Group, IKEA, The Commonwealth Secretariat, the  Grassroots Business Fund, and the National Skill Development Corporation.
