People love shopping locally—meeting the makers, hearing their stories, and discovering products that reflect the culture and creativity of a place. We have been fortunate to travel the world and connect with countless entrepreneurs, artists, makers, and designers. With more than 30 years of international trading experience, we have developed a deep appreciation for handcrafted goods and the people behind them.
As longtime Glenwood Springs business owners, we have proudly served our community for many years through our two established retail locations. Our dream has always been to create a special place where Colorado artists, American makers, and fair-trade artisans from around the world could come together.
Colorado True Trade brings that dream to life—all under one roof. Here, every purchase supports a maker, celebrates creativity, and tells a story.
Shop local. Support makers. Take home something meaningful.
Nestled in the heart of Colorado, Colorado True Trade is more than a gift store — it’s a modern mountain mercantile where every item reflects the spirit of the Rockies.
Inspired by Colorado’s rugged landscapes, rich heritage and talented makers, we’ve created a place where visitors and locals alike can discover authentic treasures. Browse Colorado-made goods, locally inspired apparel, handcrafted gifts, gourmet foods, artisan jewelry, home décor and thoughtfully selected Fair Trade products — each piece chosen for its quality, craftsmanship and connection to the places and people that make Colorado special.
We carefully select every product in our store, working with local businesses whenever possible while partnering with organizations that support ethical craftsmanship and sustainable production.
Whether you’re searching for the perfect souvenir, a meaningful gift or something to remember your mountain adventure, you’ll always find a warm welcome, genuine hospitality and products you’ll be proud to take home.
