We believe in regions with a sustainable economy, where the manufacturing industry is visible. Where people consciously choose home-grown products that are made with attention to sustainability and creativity or craftsmanship. Where consumers and companies buy locally and people visiting the city also choose to do so. In this way, money circulates regionally and the local economy strengthens.
How do we contribute?
With the Amsterdam Made and Locally Made quality marks, we make local, sustainable products instantly recognisable to consumers. These quality labels stimulate consumer awareness so they will choose a more responsible lifestyle and adopt the buy-local mentality.
In addition, we provide makers with extra exposure and support: we share their stories, show their products on our website, offer visibility through media partners, and create a network where knowledge is shared and collaborations emerge.
