Our Mission: Bringing African Craft to the World

At Tiptoe Ventures, we believe every handcrafted item holds a story—of culture, creativity, and community. Our mission is to shine a spotlight on authentic African crafts, connecting talented artisans with homes and hearts across the UK and Europe.

​

Through our vibrant Tiptoe Craft Shop at Northampton Market Square, we proudly showcase the artistry of Africa - while helping artisans support their families, fund education, and access healthcare.
