Yadaweya's story begins with a team of young Egyptian social entrepreneurs passionate about the diverse handicrafts and handmade treasures of Egyptian artisans. Yadaweya is not just an online handicrafts marketplace but it also serves as a platform for sharing stories about artisans with customers who value and appreciate the uniqueness of these traditional crafts. Yadaweya aims to contribute to building a platform that helps sustain Egyptian craftsmanship, in a time and place where our skilled artisan partners lack the opportunities for stable marketing and a consistent income stream. The purpose of Yadaweya is to create a revolutionary mechanism through which the artists and artisans in Egypt can display their fine works to a global audience of prospective customers. Yadaweya does not charge artists any fees for listing their items on the website. And by cutting out the long strings of middlemen, Yadaweya allows both online-consumers and offline-artisans to build a sustainable relationship. We encourage our customers to send us feedback and comments in order for us to ensure the development of our crafts and help the craftsmen innovate and develop in the best way possible.
