Our Mission Sierra Pacific Crafts is a cooperative organization of successful, independently owned Craft Stores. The mission of our organization is to maximize the success of member stores and our vendor partners through cooperative strategies in marketing, purchasing, education, networking, and fellowship. Our History Sierra Pacific Crafts (SPC) was founded in 1990. We might seem young, but the organization actually began in 1979 as two independent retailers meeting to network. In 1990, a group of seven store owners in the Pacific Northwest created the company you know today. Of the founding seven, six are still members. We now boast a 120 store membership, filling nearly two million feet of retail space and 360 million dollars in retail sales. From the beginning, our stores have been committed to marketing crafts and home decor to today's savvy consumer.
