the concept
Ubuntu Market is a series of pop-ups where the hearts and souls of artisans and artists around the world are brought to you.
Every product is ethically sourced from projects that have social and positive impact. We're based in New York, strongly inspired by Mexico but sourcing and collaborating from all parts of the world.
Ubuntu is also a way of living, and way of thinking.
"Ubuntu is the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity"

"You cannot be human on your own. We speak, walk and think by imitating other human beings. We are human only through relationships. We are made for complementarity."
- Desmond Tutu, South African social rights activist
