October 17, 2025
The Acho Dene Koe First Nation’s economic development wing hopes to soon take over Fort Liard’s Acho Dene Native Crafts store, which closed in October 2024.
The store, which is currently a subsidiary of territorial agency Prosper NWT, had been in operation since 1976 according to its website. It sold the likes of birchbark baskets, jewellery, moccasins, mittens and mukluks, made by local artisans.
A Prosper NWT spokesperson said the store’s closure, initially intended to be a temporary measure, was prompted by “ongoing operational and staffing challenges impacting regular operations.”
