SHOP LOCAL:90 BRANDS, 1000 GIFT IDEAS & 10 MAURITIAN REASONS TO LOVE IT

This Christmas, My Pop-Up Store brings together 90 local brands offering over 1000 gift ideas across our 3 locations. But why exactly should you shop local? Hereare 10 reasons that will make you smile:

1. Buying local helps Mauritian businesses. It's like helping our family. As one people as one nation! Indeed, "Kas res dan fami" like we say here! - money stays within family.

Enn ti boost pou nou pei mo ser!

‍

2. Supporting your neighbor's business is way cooler than supporting some random billionaire's yacht fund! Plus, you might actually bump into the creator at the supermarket - try doing that with a big international brand! Cap ou pas Cap?

‍

3. Shopping locally means creating local jobs and opportunities. It means maybe someday you or your sister can get a new job!

Bye Nicole, monn gayn enn lot travay!

4. Our local artisans put their hearts, souls, and that special "Mauritian touch" into everything they make. It's like getting a warm hug with every purchase!

Enn ti leker pou twa!

5. Speaking of warm hugs, shopping local means less shipping = smaller carbon footprint. Mother Earth says "Mersi!"  

Sa bann siklonn la pe vinn tro for vouzot!

6. You get unique pieces that nobody else has! No more awkward same outfit moments with that cousin you hate at family gatherings. Win-win!

Personn pa kontan li de toutt fason!

7. Local products are made for our climate and lifestyle. They just get us! Because let's face it, who else understands the need for beach-to-brunch-to-wedding versatility?

We just spoke to your heart là, non?

8. Customer service that actually knows your name (and probably your mom's

name too).Try getting that kind of personal touch from a chatbot!

Ayooo sa bann chatbox zame marse la!

9. Local artists and creators keep our culture alive and kicking.

It's like preserving our heritage, but make it fashion! "Simple, Basique."

10. No need for another one! You've read enough!

SHOP LOCAL FOR CHRISTMAS!! Sa mem tou!

Ale Bye!

Bonn fet hin!
