3 REASONS TO BUY FROM SOCIAL ENTERPRISES

1

Added value in the community

Every purchase from these social enterprises is an investment you make in the community, because they reinvest at least 90% of their profits in social and environmental actions and projects.

 

2

Social inclusion

The social enterprises taking part in the fair create jobs for vulnerable people (single mothers, people with disabilities, young people coming from the protection system). Each purchase supports job retention and the creation of new jobs.

 

3

Quality and something extra!

Products and services from social enterprises often come with a unique story about the social or environmental cause they support, adding value beyond the simple item purchased.
