Taking its name from an Inca dagger, Tumi was founded in 1978 by Mo Fini promoting fair trade crafts and goods with Latin America, working closely with organisations such as Traidcraft and Oxfam Trading, specialising in wholesale distribution, retail and mail order online of world crafts.

In 1991 Tumi Crafts received the World Award for Effective Communication from the Centre for World Development Education in London.  They import an amazing array of crafts from instuments, jewellery and vases and pots to name but a few, keeping tradional  crafts alive.

Tumi are recognised members of the British Association Of Fair Trade Suppliers
