Dharma Trading Co

Since the company first opened in 1969, alot has happened. Dharma started as a yarn store and then added dyes for Tie-Dye and then fabric paints, then T-shirts, then clothing, and on and on. The company opened another store in Marin County in 1975 and closed the Berkeley store sometime after. The company started mailing a catalog in the early 70's... and the mail-order sales quickly overshadowed the store's and became the focus of the business. Later, in the early 90's when the internet was born, the company built a rudimentary web site for Dharma which was later, and continues today, to be developed and perfected by other talented people who work here at Dharma. There are now as many as 90 people working at Dharma full or part time. Hundreds of employees have passed through on their way to other lives. Some really great people who have joined in making Dharma an honest, straight-talking company! All the folks who work at Dharma continue to this day trying to keep Dharma a Fair, Honest and Straight-Talking company.
