The Netherlands is bursting with makers who produce with love, craftsmanship, and an eye for sustainability. But as a consumer, how do you find them easily? We’re here to help! Get to know our Quality Mark Holders.
Our Local Friends are local makers who contribute to a more sustainable Netherlands. From circular fashion to artisan-roasted coffee and handmade soap – they produce it all locally. On our Local Friends page, you’ll find these makers clearly listed, with a link to their own website.
What’s the difference between Local Friends and Local Makers? Many of our Local Friends are eager to tell more about their brand – and rightly so, because they all have inspiring stories. That’s why we offer them the opportunity to grow into Local Makers: makers with their own dedicated page on Locally Made. On such a page, you’ll learn more about their mission, how they produce, and see a selection of their products – so you can shop sustainably right away. Local Makers also have access to all our other services, such as our quality mark, exposure in the media, and network.
In short:
- On the Local Friends page you can quickly and easily discover all the brands contributing to a conscious and sustainable world
- Via the Local Makers page you can dive deeper into their stories and products and learn more about what makes them special
