Ock Pop Tok is a unique textile and handcrafting center in Laos, founded in 2000 as a marriage of Eastern and Western culture by British immigrant Jo Smith and local Laos residents Veo Douangdala. The company, whose name translates to "East Meets West" in English, emphasizes principles of fair trade and sustainability and has grown to become one of Southeast Asia's most prominent artisanal textile companies. Visitors can explore its Living Crafts Center as part of free half-hour public tours daily, with workshops and classes with master weavers available to teach textile weaving principles. The company also sells goods at its Flagship Shop and offers delicious Eastern-Western fusion cuisine at its Silk Road Café.
