Christmas Stocking - Fairtrade Certified Organic Cotton

The Chrismas Stocking is from Bishopston Trading Company whose profits are used to benefit the people of K.V. Kuppam through the registered charity, the South India Rural Development Trust.

The Christmas stocking is just under £6 and is made of 100% Fairtrade certified organic cotton and decorated with a lovely Christmas Tree and is 43cms high. It really is a nice small Christmas stocking with hook for maybe hanging on a fire surround with some gifts in or just as a decoration. The envelope was made of Recycled paper with plastic sleeve inside which can be recycled.

K.V. Kuppam is in the state of Tamil Nadu in southern India, situated inland to the west of Madras, roughly half way between Madras and Bangalore. The nearest place you will probably find on a map is Vellore. In recent years this trust has been able to fund a beautiful, architect designed factory in the village. This has hugely improved the working conditions for the producers, giving them light spacious airy units in which to work, and importantly for them, bringing them all together in one location.
