Established Craft Network The Southern Highland Craft Guild has a longstanding history since 1930, representing nearly 900 craftspeople across multiple southeastern states, offering extensive opportunities to partner with local artisans and craft producers for supply chain expansion or collaborative marketing efforts.

Educational Engagement With a focus on educational programming and community events, there is potential to offer workshops, craft supplies, or instructional materials that align with the Guild's community outreach initiatives and enhance their educational offerings.

Retail Presence Operates four craft shops and hosts two annual expos, providing direct retail channels for product placement, exclusive collaborations, or promotional campaigns targeting craft enthusiasts and regional buyers.

Regional Market Focus Serving a broad geographic area across nine southeastern states, the Guild presents a regional market opportunity for distribution, localized marketing, and engagement with craft communities to expand market reach.

Strong Cultural Legacy Given its historic significance and leadership in Appalachian crafts, there are opportunities to collaborate on heritage-focused products, educational content, or cultural events that resonate with the Guild’s mission and audience.
