There’s something I’ve been wanting to share with you... 🤍
If you’ve known me for a while or have been following Aroma Quartz, you’ll know that supporting independent businesses has always been something I’m incredibly passionate about.
Over the last few years, I welcomed other makers into our shop, collaborated with local creatives and done our best to champion small businesses wherever I could with Aroma Quartz.
The more I did that, the more I realised something, It wasn’t just the products I loved, it was the people behind the brand, the stories on how they got to where they are now, the excitement on their face when they hit a milestone and seeing them finally believing in themself.
So I always knew I would end up creating a space that truly championed small businesses, creativity and how important who and where we choose to spend our money is. That’s why I’m so excited to share Gander with you.
Gander is a new chapter for me personally but it comes from exactly the same values that Aroma Quartz has always been built on.
It’s about celebrating independent businesses, bringing talented makers together and creating seasonal events that encourage people to shop a little more thoughtfully.
Because every time we choose to support an indie brand or maker instead of a huge retailer, we’re helping real people continue doing what ignites their soul and keep our hard earned money in our community.
I wanted to share this with both the AQ and Gander communities because without Aroma Quartz, Gander simply wouldn’t exist and it was about time I actually shared me on the Gander page!
So welcome to Gander Makers Markets and I simply can’t wait to invite you into Ganders first Event: A Mindful Christmas at the Flaxmill happening on the 5th & 6th of December with over 80 indie brands confirmed already 🎄
If you’re an indie brand and fancy joining us, I would love to hear from you!
