The establishment of an online market to sell their handmade goods has transformed the lives of craftspeople in Dharavi, an area previously thought of as primarily an undesirable slum. Through online sales directly between customers and sellers, the sellers double their profits and customers can make purchases from the comfort of their own homes, secure in the knowledge that they are contributing to the improved quality of life of the makers of these beautiful goods and their families. This truly global market unites people from very diverse backgrounds in ways that benefit all concerned.
