Mary & Martha is a company that stands or falls on the products it sells; it has to make a profit to be self sustaining and to have the cash flow to fund the expanding business and those of its artisans. They believe that by showing ethical, fair and transparent businesses practices, they can compete head to head with main stream businesses, without major donations and without running at a loss. Ethical, fair and transparent because that is in their DNA and because many said it was not possible in Mongolia.  They follow the principles of “Unashamedly Ethical” personally and corporately  and adhere to the 10 Fair Trade principles used by the World Fair Trade Organisation. They have been members of WFTO since 2011.
