How do I become a GoodWeave licensed importer?
Importers are the backbone of the GoodWeave program. Out of the small royalty fee on carpets paid by licensed importers, 60 percent is returned to South Asia to educate and train former child weavers. The balance of the fees helps to build consumer awareness about the importance of purchasing certified rugs. In the United States, only licensed importers are legally permitted to sell carpets carrying the GoodWeave label. To view a sample agreement, click here.
