Port Washington’s first gift shop that deals exclusively in fair-trade items, Fair Trade for All, will hold a grand opening from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, June 11.

Shop owner Gail Bennett-Christian said the store features gifts, clothing, jewelry and home decor items from more than 40 developing
countries.

Coffee and chocolate produced by indigenous people will also be available.

“The items in our shop are beautiful and all hand-crafted by small producer groups who are paid a living wage for their labor under safe
working conditions,” Bennett-Christian said.

She runs a similar shop in Wauwatosa.

The Port store is at 101 E. Grand Ave., next to the Cousins sandwich shop.
