The article is discussing the economic connections between Moscow and Moscow Oblast, specifically the items that can be found for sale at Moscow markets that were brought in from oblast suppliers:
Предлагаемый на них широкий ассортимент плодоовощной продукции, товаров пищевой и перерабатывающей промышленности, *изделий народного промысла*, товаров народного потребления отпускается по ценам, в среднем, на 10-15% ниже цен на аналогичную продукцию на потребительском рынке Москвы.
Would you call these craft items? Something more eloquent? Or have I missed the meaning entirely?

cottage industry product
cottage industry - The date on which the Products shall be deemed delivered shall be the date (Collins Cobuild).
I believe its meaning is very close to the phrase in question

Oops - sorry:))) please find below the correct definition from Collins Cobuild - A cottage industry is a small business that is run from someone’s home, especially one that involves a craft such as knitting or pottery.
