Who we are

Nepal's craft, delivered to your store

Student Handicraft Enterprises has been operating out of Thamel, Kathmandu since 1999. We are an EXIM-registered wholesale exporter working directly with a network of 50+ artisan partners across Nepal — covering hemp, felt, metal, cotton, and more.

We focus exclusively on B2B wholesale: importers, boutique retailers, and ethical sourcing managers who need reliable supply, proper documentation, and honest product information. Our catalogue spans 1,200+ SKUs, all handmade in Nepal.

We believe craft deserves a fair price — from the artisan to the end buyer. That means direct relationships, transparent pricing, and no unnecessary intermediaries.
