What Mysmallshop Does

MySmallShop is a business with a social intention. MySmallShop is first and foremost a social enterprise and as part of that we carry out fair trading. Our aim is to buy products at fair prices and invest in the development, empowerment and support of communities.

MySmallShop supports third/developing world businesses and aims to provide a Western market for artisans in the developing world. MySmallShop works with ethical businesses, NGO's and individuals which produce good quality, unique products in a sociably responsible way providing fair wages and not working with children or exploiting people.

MySmallShop aims to create demand for goods produced in the third/developing world which will in turn create jobs and enable business owners to increase wages and improve standards of living for all involved. The main aim of MySmallShop is to make profit and to give a fair price back to the producers reducing the gap between rich and poor.

All profits from MySmallShop are donated to MySmallHelp www.mysmallhelp.org which has the mission of relieving poverty amongst children all over the world.
