Support Indigenous Artists and Entrepreneurs
At Shawish, we believe in supporting Indigenous dreams without hindering them with unnecessary fees. That's why we don't charge vendors a monthly or transaction fee. When you support a small Indigenous business, you're supporting a community's cultural identity and economic well-being.
Buying Indigenous-made products instead of just "Indigenous-inspired" items is a way to become an ally to Indigenous people. At Shawish, we verify that every purchase comes directly from an Indigenous vendor. Your purchase not only supports Indigenous artists and entrepreneurs but also helps fight against systemic oppression.

Trade Goods
Indigenous people have been trading for generations, making it a fundamental part of our history, culture, and economic well-being. At Shawish, we honor this tradition by allowing customers and vendors to trade art, tools, or knowledge with other Nations or non-Indigenous people, just like our ancestors did.
