History
At Katmandu Trading Company we love what we do, which is to say, working with you. Your kind and continued support over the years has allowed Katmandu to grow from a mere idea, into one of America's largest manufacturers and direct-importers of Nepalese handicrafts. Along the way, and as a direct result of your loyalty and enthusiasm, our wonderful partners in Nepal and elsewhere, have simultaneously expanded their own even humbler origins, into operations that now support countless families and entire communities. In vulnerable corners of the globe, with no labor laws, it is imperative that fair-minded individuals rally together, creating a sum greater than the whole of its parts, thereby harnessing the power of unity, to provide opportunity. We believe in peace, and equal respect for all our brothers and sisters worldwide. Regardless of religion, nationality, skin color, or shoe size, we are all here together, and will rise or fall as one. Embrace the globe and feel the love!
