Fairware - Accessible Employers

Fairware

Who we are

Fairware is North America’s sustainable merch brand. We help organizations connect with their customers, employees, and partners through sustainable, custom-branded promotional products that align with their values.

We’re committed to making make your merchandise matter.

Why we are involved

Inspired by the efforts of retired Co-founder, Sarah White, our team is dedicated to carrying forward her commitment to fostering accessible and inclusive workplaces.

We continue to embed Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) principles into our daily operations and culture and take proactive steps to create an environment where opportunities are open to people of all abilities.

Our partnership with the Accessible Employers reflects our view that diverse perspectives fuel innovation and strengthens our team. We seek to continuously learn from others, work collaboratively, and act against barriers, question biases, and develop a workplace where access and inclusion are truly values, rather than just set goals.
