Eric Pedersen

I'm Eric Pedersen. I am a graphic artist and web developer by trade. I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota where I played in various bands and studied Art. I moved to San Francisco in 1999 where I met Andy while working with an Internet startup - Meet World Trade. While with Meet World Trade I became interested in international commerce and the politics of international trade and development. So when Andy came back from Brazil with a bag made from the recycled tabs I knew I had to jump aboard and see where this could go. To hear the stories and see the enthusiasm of both the women who make them from our customers has been incredibly rewarding. Thank you all.
