Why it matters: this volunteer-run boutique is the Nice outpost of Artisans du Monde, France’s pioneering fair-trade network, selling crafts and groceries from producer cooperatives paid a fair price. The shelves mix handmade jewelry, textiles and ceramics with single-origin coffee, chocolate and spices – all traceable to partner organizations, and the volunteers will happily tell you each product’s story. Stock up on edible souvenirs here instead of the tourist strips; it’s an easy walk from the Libération market. Note the hours: Monday afternoons only, Tuesday to Saturday all day.
