WHO WE ARE:
From a foundation of compassion and entrepreneurial vision, The Source Matters was established to provide a platform for indigenous growers around the world to have a sustainable livelihood for their families and communities by bringing to the marketplace their agricultural products and hand-crafted items.
We desire to relieve human suffering and extreme poverty in the name of Jesus, by operating on all three sides of the entrepreneurial capitalism triangle.
Side A:
Purchase from global communities, missions-minded producers, indigenous pastors, and unreached people groups. AND Sell these products: direct to consumers, wholesale to businesses, and through a subscription box.
Side B:
Be sufficiently profitable to buy from these producers routinely, so the financial impact brings relief via the establishment of community development projects where the producers live.
Side C:
Reinvest large portions of profits from The Source Matters to fund: Medical Outreach, Global Missions, Missionaries, and strategic projects that are evangelism-focused.
We are dedicated to personally source and pack our products buying directly from indigenous farmers without a middleman, ensuring the highest-quality products AND supporting local farming and fair trade in the industry.
