CSR at Samosir island

Samosir Island, North Sumatra – Indorisakti, a renowned name in the Indonesian handicraft sector, is extending its commitment to empowering local communities by initiating a comprehensive artisan training program on Samosir Island, North Sumatra. This vital initiative aims to cultivate the traditional craftsmanship unique to the region, providing local artisans with advanced skills, knowledge, and direct pathways to broader markets.

Samosir Island, nestled in the heart of Lake Toba, is celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and skilled craftspeople. Recognizing this immense potential, Indorisakti has launched a dedicated program to enhance the capabilities of these local artisans. The training focuses on refining existing techniques, introducing new design concepts that blend traditional aesthetics with contemporary market demands, and educating participants on sustainable material sourcing and quality control.

The program goes beyond just technical skills. Artisans are also being equipped with essential business acumen, including product packaging, branding, and fundamental marketing strategies. This holistic approach ensures that the artisans not only produce high-quality goods but are also capable of independently managing their craft businesses, thereby fostering economic self-sufficiency.

Through this impactful collaboration, Indorisakti is not only preserving and promoting the unique artistic traditions of Samosir Island but also creating tangible economic opportunities for its residents. By integrating these newly trained artisans into Indorisakti's supply chain or helping them establish their own ventures, the initiative is set to significantly boost local incomes and strengthen the regional economy.
