We popped up on 19 South Molton Street, Mayfair, London. In numbers: 35 BRANDS WHO PRIORITISE THE PEOPLE AND PLANET, 1 SHOP, 3 DAYS & OVER 500 VISITORS ❤️‍🔥


OUR THANK YOU’s:

THE BRANDS—To all the brands we represented over the weekend, thank you for choosing to create a business that puts people and planet first. You are helping to build a new future, that puts sustainability, responsibility, and accountability for the 🌍 first. 

OUR SPONSOR—The WIP for supporting our mission and for building your online community of humans who want to challenge the status quo. We are pleased to share The WIP is now 70% or their way to funding their launch, so head to their Instagram to pledge to get them across the line!!

OUR COMMUNITY—To everyone who came to visit us, it was amazing to share the stories of the brands with you. Thank you for supporting our journey in exploring sustainability, climate and consumption— and for making narrative led shopping the norm!
