Hecho is a curated collection of ethically produced, handcrafted goods made by skilled artisans across Mexico and Guatemala. This small collective of artisans are an incredibly hardworking, knowledgeable and creative group. They are dedicated to their respective crafts, as well as upholding family and cultural traditions.

Founder Ehren Seeland was driven to create Hecho after becoming so inspired by the handmade pieces and stories she had gathered while undertaking international development work across the globe. She works hard to ensure that, through Hecho, she is able to share these remarkable products and stories within the context of a sustainable business built on partnerships, respect and transparency.

Giving Back
Hecho support their artisans through socially-focused projects. These projects are based on artisan feedback as to what is most beneficial for them. For example Hecho have: assisted with photo-documenting and editing to help artisans reach new clients; helped artisans develop special projects when extra funds are needed; donated second hand smartphones and provided instruction on how this technology can help their business; and have donated unsold Hecho stock to artisans to sell at their own market stalls.

Every effort is made to select suppliers that are transparent and operate ethically. Suppliers have confirmed the accuracy of the values above, however resources do not permit independent verification of each claim.
