Taking 4,000 Artisans Online, One Village at a Time

Fatima Sheikh did not set out to build CraftBazaar the way it looks today. The first version solved a much smaller problem, for a much smaller group of people.

What changed was a willingness to listen to customers who were unhappy, and to rebuild rather than defend early decisions. That discipline is what separated this company from a dozen others chasing the same market.

Today the team is focused on depth over breadth — serving existing customers better rather than chasing every adjacent opportunity.
