Sam Nirh

Co-founder

Sam always knows how to get things done the fastest, most efficient way. He makes sure the invisible parts of the business work well. He brings stability to a business that can easily get overwhelmed with problems. When problems in an artisan’s lives bring us down, Sam’s clarity keeps us abreast. If WGC was an artist, Sam would be the understanding manager.

Sam likes quiet places, working hard, and chatting with old friends.

Shweta

Co-founder

Shweta's goal in life is to entertain herself and this business is what brings her joy. She is the nomad who refuses to learn Microsoft Excel. She travels and hunts for beautiful things all over India . She spends time with artisans to understand what they do and how they do it so well. She works closely with artisan groups and finds out ways we can intervene in the supply chain to make the sourcing process better.

Shweta likes tequila, learning languages and big, fluffy dogs.

Rahul Banerjee

Photograher

Rahul is the one whose left eye we worry about. Always behind the camera, he is the quiet storyteller amongst us. What words can never describe, his pictures do. In the eastern part of India, he is the permanent translator for us.

Rahul likes dogs, science and tripping over thin air.
