The J. J. Handloom Handicrafts Welfare & Tourism Dev. Co. Op. Indl.Society. Ltd.

The J. J. Handloom Handicrafts Welfare & Tourism Dev. Co. Op. Indl.Society. Ltd. is basically just a group of us working together up here in Seribehr. We’ve been around Shamshi Post for a while now. It's a cooperative, so we all have a say in how things go. Mostly, we focus on making handlooms and things that tourists might like when they visit the area. It’s quiet in this part of the mountains, but we keep busy with the looms going all day. Sometimes people stop by after seeing the signs, and we show them what we’re currently working on. It isn’t some big factory or anything like that. We just have our space where the work gets done by hand. We try to help out the local weavers because that’s the main point of being a society. If you find yourself in Seribehr, you can see us. The weather gets cold, so we make things that keep people warm. It’s a lot of work, and some days are slower than others when the wool is hard to get or if the power goes out. We don’t have a fancy office, just the workshop. It’s how we’ve always done it here. We hope that the things we make last a long time for whoever buys them. It’s just us doing what we know how to do, day in and day out. We don't have a website or anything, people just find us.
