Our Initiative
Lokabazar.in is a Handicraft e-commerce Startup based in Bastar which has been identified as a promising means of generating livelihood for Tribal artisans in Bastar District. The traditional tribal Bastar art is well-known throughout the world in Indian tribal arts.
This art is practiced by tribals in India's Bastar area, who are well-known around the world for their one-of-a-kind artwork.
The tribal clans of Bastar have passed down this uncommon craft from generation to generation,
but in the absence of exposure, it was limited to weekly haats and markets. Lokabazar.in facilitates tribal artisans to directly sell their products with their identity delivered to customer's doorsteps.
Lokabazar.in aims to provide global exposure for our artisans in Bastar.
It will help us to generate more livelihood in tribal areas and empower women and families. The need to develop and support the handicraft community is necessary and immediate. It is essential for the development of the tribal communities at the grass-root level and for sustaining the dying crafts and traditions, which have been passed down generations. Our Initiative is helping our artisans to improve their economy as well as social status. It not only helps our artisans become wage earners but also spreads awareness about the traditional crafts of the Bastar, thus helping preserve a rich part of India’s national cultural heritage.

Thank you so much for these beautiful planters and especially packing it so well. The fact that I'm from a hilly region with bumpy transportation yet the package arrived without any scratches is commendable. Genuine products lovingly handcrafted. Your customer service is something to be appreciated for. Quite satisfied and happy with your work and the products. Keep up with the good work.
Terracotta Magic Diya By Ashok Chakradhari | Handmade
This is a beautiful product. I am amazed that I don't have to do anything. Once you fill up and set the wick it burns well for a day. Every few hours you have to push the wick a bit. Thats it. It looks like a child praying! I am very happy with it and shall gift my friends with this most meaningfull gift. I like to support pottery and Village craft. For this is our heritage. Loka Bazar is very prompt in shipping and replying to any question. Well done and thank you
