SURevolution

SURevolution, founded in 2005, is a home décor and lifestyle design company that connects indigenous artisan groups in the developing world with high-end wholesale buyers in the United States and Europe. In addition from sourcing from indigenous communities, SURevolution works closely with the artisans on product design, quality and production improvements that lead them to receive higher wages on the world market.

At SURevolution’s core is a respect for culture, the environment, and the livelihoods of the artisans. The company has offices in Bogota, Colombia and New York, and combines skilled business discipline with a strong social focus.

SURevolution has been featured in prominent magazines including Elle, Gatham and Hand Eye. In 2008, SURevolution was recognized by the Secretary of State’s Award for Corporate Excellence for their inclusion of 450 indigenous Wayu and Wacoyo families and 1,000 ex -guerrilla and paramilitary in their artisan program.
