| About Us: | Tiki Bar Gifts.com is a family owned business located in the fabulous Florida Keys. Tiki Bar Gifts.com was borne from a love of the Caribbean and many years of world travel. To us, it was only natural to share the simple life we discovered growing up in the Caribbean. From this love came the idea to share the spirit of Aloha with others by offering unique and authentic island products. This spirit of Aloha that we provide through our online store beckons people back to a more simplistic island culture. The much sought after simple life …
In addition, your Tiki Bar Gifts.com purchases help create a worldwide marketplace for the products of our artisans, ensuring that they can earn a decent living and at the same time preserve their cultural traditions.
A few facts on what we offer:
Most of our home decorating items are made with RECYCLED materials: the metal comes from used drums that brought chemicals, oil and food in Haiti, the paper and cardboard in our Papier-mache comes from scraps taken from old cement bags and rejects of cardboard and boxes from factories.
The companies that we deal with are members of Fair Trade Organizations and do not use child labor. Often the artisans work from their home or in small workshops in the countryside. Not Chinese factories.
It is our mission to promote Haitian art and try to make a difference in every way we can. With your support over the years we have made a huge difference by selling millions of dollars of Haitian handy crafts. That money helps create jobs, food, medical assistance and education for the Haitian People. |
