Shops such as Artefakto source their products and merchandise from several different culturally rich and diverse areas of Mexico. Working with craftsmen and artisans in Indigenous communities helps to maintain deep seated traditions that have been passed down through many generations.

Matiz in Sayulita opened in 2016 and is a one of a kind restaurant with great ambience offering a menu highlighting international fusion cuisine.

Head chef Jose Osbaldo Pucheta Nava curated the menu to represent a mix of international cuisines and Spanish-inspired dining. Chef Jose Osbaldo studied in Spain at culinary school and has been working professionally as a chef since 2010. After attending culinary school in Spain, Jose Osbaldo came back to bring his knowledge and passion for cooking to Mexico.

Artefakto is a beautiful boutique located in Plaza Ágora. The owner, Stephen Dabrowski, sources many of the items from culturally rich regions within Mexico. The majority of all handmade jewelry, decor and accessories are made by indigenous people. All products are handmade and one of a kind, allowing you to purchase intricate and detailed handcrafted products from Mexico. When stepping into Artefakto, you will be transported to another place and time, with the burning incense and copal circling through the air and the rich, bold colors of textiles and indigenous art surrounding you.

One of Artefakto's interests is in restoring and maintaining the integrity of the beautiful works of art that are becoming lost within the newer generations of Mexican culture. Artefakto has several locations including Punta de Mita, as well as a second store in Sayulita.
