IN THE HEART OF THE FEZ MEDINA · NEXT DOOR TO CAFE CLOCK
An artisan-owned Moroccan craft store in Fez
No resellers, no bargaining theater. Meet the artisans behind Anou's work, dye wool on the rooftop, or just have a mint tea. Every price is set — and kept — by the people who made the piece.
Open every day 10am–9pm·9 Derb Megana, Old City Fez·Near the Blue Gate, next door to Cafe Clock·Directions →
MEET THE ARTISANS
Stop hearing reseller stories. Meet the makers.
Artisans from across the Anou community staff the store themselves. Have a chat, ask anything, practice your Darija — and if you're deep in a project, schedule a meet-up with the team to talk product development or your latest custom order.
Morocco's only sustainable dye studio — on our roof
Yes, really. Come see how environmentally safe materials are made, join a wool-dyeing workshop, buy yarn straight from the source, or get lost in the color book that powers every custom order.
The store houses the AWSco Wool Yarn Store — yarns hand-sorted by artisans and spun at the zero-carbon mill in Aït Bouguemez, dyed naturally on the roof. Knitters, weavers, and makers: this is the source.
Traveling to Fez and eyeing something on Anou that isn't at the store? For a small donation, the artisans will ship it to the store ahead of your arrival — so you can see it in person before you buy.
And if the piece you want needs changing — size, colors, your own design — start the commission at the store, with the team, over tea.

“Finally, a real cooperative! This is a compulsory stop in Fez if you are looking for local products at the fair price!”
— Maite H
“Their operation works for the artisans to have fair access to the money they deserve, in a way that is environmentally sustainable and equitable. One of the coolest stores I have been in.”
— Ella Y
“We were intimidated by the bargaining process. Then we found Anou — prices are clearly stated, and we were left to make our selection in peace.”
— Nicolas F
