What is Wayuu Market?

A Window Connecting Wayuu People to the World

Welcome to Wayuu Market, the only platform that hosts independent Wayuu artisan shops directly from La Guajira, Colombia.

We work as a commercial bridge for rural indigenous communities to access the digital world market. All of our stores belong to Wayuu people: artisans, local producers, and artisan union representatives. We all work together to supply everyone from retail customers to wholesale merchants. Meet the artisans of the Wayuu Market.

The Advantages of Buying at Wayuu Market

You get local pricing from the artisans no matter what and fast and inexpensive shipping, retail buyers can acquire Wayuu items at a discount. However, the trick for wholesale buyers to get lower shipping costs per item is to buy more products. We have worked hard to get the lowest processing prices and shipping discounts to get you the best price possible while still respecting the artisan’s fees. Read more about how it works.
