Our ongoing endeavor is to bring positive influence in various directions: local entrepreneurs find with us an additional channel to offer their products, recipients of our Boxes are surprised with moments of happiness when viewing delicious contents, and we are committed to good goals such as the Food Bank. In addition, we would like to contribute to creating opportunities for people who are very capable, but may not find it easy to find a job.
'Combination of opening and closing shops'
In 2017, two brothers started the City in a Box initiative with the mission to put entrepreneurs in the spotlight and to introduce the locals to all the goodies the city has to offer. This resulted in the tastiest and most original Christmas packages in town! Since then we have been collecting the tastiest artisanal products from local soil in our boxes.
In addition to supporting local entrepreneurship, we also want to support local employment. This is why we have chosen to have our packages packed at social workshops. It doesn't stop at simply collecting tasty local products. We would like to contribute to employment among the toppers who find it just a little less easy to find a job.
