Provenance is a web platform that tells the true stories of products through a union of open data and e-commerce

Everything has a story to tell. Whether it’s a new surfboard or an old satchel. Each Provenance product comes with information about who made it, where and out of what.

Provenance is a platform for transparency. It’s built on open data. We believe revealing the truth about how something is made can help us buy better things, both for the environment and for societies near and far.

We aren't claiming to be 'ethical' or 'sustainable'. Instead, we are striving for both those things by complete commitment to openness and honesty. Every product and company story is told by an experienced journalist and supported by open data feeds, all of which you can explore and add to.
