About Us
Artisanpride Producer Company Limited is a collective enterprise owned and governed by traditional lacware artisans, with a strong focus on empowering women from historically marginalized communities. Located in Channapatna, Karnataka—an iconic hub for wooden lac-turnery—Artisanpride is rooted in the belief that heritage crafts can be a powerful driver of dignified livelihoods, rural development, and cultural pride. Formed with the vision of building a sustainable, artisan-led ecosystem, Artisanpride supports its members through end-to-end interventions that include capacity building, design innovation, production planning, quality improvement, and access to wider markets. Our goal is to ensure that the artisans not only preserve their traditional skills but also thrive in today’s competitive world as confident producers, entrepreneurs, and leaders. We work closely with artisans—especially women—who often face economic and social barriers, helping them gain greater control over their work and income. As a registered Producer Company, Artisanpride follows democratic governance principles, where each member has a stake and a voice in shaping the future of the enterprise. Our product range includes eco-friendly toys, educational tools, lifestyle products, corporate gifts, and home décor—each handcrafted with care, precision, and respect for the environment. Every item we produce tells a story of craftsmanship, resilience, and transformation. At Artisanpride, we are not just reviving a craft; we are reimagining what it means for artisans to lead their own development, build collective wealth, and inspire the next generation of makers.

Mission Statement

“To empower traditional artisans—especially women from marginalized communities—by nurturing sustainable livelihoods rooted in the heritage of lacware craft.” Artisanpride is a producer-owned enterprise dedicated to enhancing skills, ensuring fair income, and expanding market access through ethical practices, collective strength, and community-led growth
