White Sands Trading (WST), official concessioner of White Sands National Park and a New Mexico family-owned company, is proud to join with the National Park Service in preserving this rich ecosystem for generations to come. We are vigilant in using best practices to limit our impact on the environment and to educate visitors about the fragility of this unique area.
Since 2005, the White Sands Trading Gift Shop has been providing visitors with unique mementos of White Sands National Park. We offer authentic Native American handcrafts from New Mexico including intricately detailed pottery and sterling silver jewelry. Visitors of all ages enjoy our sand disks while sledding down the dunes. Our grab-and-go area will satisfy your hunger with sandwiches and snacks. You can also restock your water or choose from a variety of beverages. A varied selection of t-shirts and souvenirs will help you memorialize your visit to the largest gypsum dunefield on earth.
WST pays a franchise fee of 16% of our gross receipts to the park. This money is used to make improvements within the park. We appreciate your support and look forward to continuing our mission of preserving the historic building we occupy while protecting the unparalleled desert-scape of White Sands National Park.
