About IndieMe: The Handcrafted Wholesale Marketplace

IndieMe connects North American handcrafted artists with vetted retail buyers. Curated, not commercialized, we’re dedicated exclusively to wholesale handmade products made in the USA & Canada. Every artist is juried, every item is authentic, and every detail is made by hand.

Search. Discover. Shop Handmade Wholesale

IndieMe is a woman-owned, online handcrafted wholesale marketplace where retailers can source 250,000+ handmade wholesale products from juried American and Canadian artists. Shop curated categories like ceramics, jewelry, glass, home décor, sculpture, fiber, artisan food, and more.

The future of wholesale doesn’t need to be reinvented. It’s always been about strong relationships, great products, and real support. That’s the IndieMe difference.

IndieMe is privately owned and built by people who understand the industry firsthand. Our name says it all: Indie stands for independent, and that’s who you are, an independent business owner growing a handcrafted brand and supporting local shops.

We’re motivated by teamwork and inspired by our members. Our promise is simple: stellar customer service and the tools you need to grow with confidence, without spending hours sorting through generic “wholesale” listings to find truly handmade work.

  • A Brief History

    IndieMe began over two decades ago connecting Made-in-USA/Canada artists with retail buyers. Our owner, Jacqueline Adamany, has a long history in the industry as a former artist, author, and contributor to trade publications. Today, she continues to build tools, education, and opportunities that help handcrafted businesses grow.

  • Values & Mission

    IndieMe is privately owned and focused on what the handcrafted industry actually needs: a smooth buying experience for retailers and real support for artists navigating wholesale. Because we answer to our members, we reinvest back into the platform, development, and growth opportunities for our community.

  • Our Focus

    We’re known for personal support, not tickets and auto-replies. If you need help with an artist, an order, or your account, email us at service@indieme.com and our team will jump in.

IndieMe is committed to maintaining the integrity of the handcrafted wholesale marketplace with a business model designed to support member growth. Our mission is to connect makers with retailers, and we promote that mission by building features, tools, and resources that help artists and buyers succeed.

The IndieMe Difference

  • No commissions. Artists choose monthly, quarterly, or yearly web service plans that are predictable and budget-friendly.
  • 100% handcrafted products made in the USA & Canada.
  • A two-tier juried process helps ensure retailers discover high-quality, truly handmade lines.
  • Artists manage their orders their way, within our marketplace or directly with the buyer.
  • Buyers can call or email with questions about an artist, a product line, or an order.
  • A real team behind the platform: operations, support, marketing, design, and development.
  • If you’re looking for handcrafted wholesale for your store, shop IndieMe. Often imitated, never duplicated.

The IndieMe Collective

IndieMe is more than a marketplace, it’s an ecosystem built to strengthen the handcrafted industry: the IndieMe Marketplace (wholesale platform), the IndieMe Virtual Expo (biannual online trade event), IndieMe Academy (education and mentorship), and Shop American Handcrafted (consumer-facing initiative that champions U.S.-made artistry). Together, these platforms support small businesses and keep handcrafted thriving.
