ArtFire Sales Milestone – $2 Million and Counting

ArtFire announced in April 2010 that the company has passed $2 million in artisan sales.  Interestingly, out of the $2 million items sold, 65% of them were handmade and fine art products.

“While this percentage may initially seem high, consider that 57% of the items sold in March were handmade goods,” the ArtFire announced on their website. “Fine art and handmade pieces also tend to be pricier, so they make up a larger percentage of revenue.”

Founded in 2008, ArtFire is a small company with a passion for handmade, art, and indie business.  ArtFire offers artisans as an interactive handmade market place and craft community.  Their mission is simple – to support your business and your brand with innovative features and functions.
