Ethical Sourcing from Turkey: Sustainable, Fair and Transparent Supply Chains

 

At Crafted Anatolia, ethical sourcing is at the core of everything we do. We are committed to connecting Australian businesses with trusted Turkish suppliers who share our values of sustainability, transparency, and social responsibility.

 

We work closely with local artisans, manufacturers, and cooperatives across Turkiye to ensure that every product you source meets rigorous ethical standards — from raw material to final craftsmanship.

 

 Our Ethical Sourcing Standards

 

We partner exclusively with suppliers and producers who comply with local and international labour and environmental standards, including:

 

 ✔ Fair Labour Practices

 

All our suppliers follow the Turkish Labour Law No. 4857, which outlines workers’ rights, including minimum wage enforcement, limits on working hours, and mandatory social security contributions. We ensure:

 

  • No child or forced labour (as defined under Turkish law and the ILO Convention)

  • Safe and fair working conditions

  • Gender equity and workplace inclusion

​

✔ Sustainable Production

 

Environmental protection is a growing priority in Turkish manufacturing. Our sourcing partners adhere to:

 

 

 ✔ Certified and Transparent Supply Chains

 

To verify ethical compliance, we prioritise working with suppliers that hold internationally recognised certifications, including:

 

GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) – for certified organic fibres

OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 – ensuring textiles are tested for harmful substances

Fair Trade Certification – where available

Sedex (SMETA) Audit Reports– for ethical trade and responsible business practices

 

Our team conducts regular audits, reviews documentation, and engages directly with producers to maintain transparency throughout the supply chain.

 

Supporting Turkish Artisans and Communities

 

We proudly support small-scale artisans and regional workshops across Turkiye, helping preserve centuries-old techniques in ceramics, textiles, woodwork, and glassware. Our ethical sourcing model ensures that:

 

  • Artisan groups are paid fairly for their craftsmanship

  • Traditional methods are maintained in a modern context

  • Local communities benefit economically and socially from global market access

 

Why Ethical Sourcing Matters

 

Choosing ethically sourced products from Turkiye is not only good business — it is a powerful way to support human rights, cultural heritage, and environmental responsibility. As a B2B platform, we empower Australian retailers, interior designers, and lifestyle brands to make informed, responsible decisions that align with their sustainability goals.
