Trash to Trade competition show case - 29 April

The event was a great success, attracting fantastic entries, stimulating conversation between artistic makers and experienced business managers. Listening to the stories of the makers was a highlight of the event.

First Prize winner for the Established Artisans category was Jared Diprose from Gooseboard www.gooseboards.com; First Prize winner for the New Designer category was Fiona Bonner from Floroganza www.facebook.com/pg/floroganza.nz, and First Prize winner for the Young Makers category was Briar Shaw-Smith with Vintage Curiosity. The winners received each $500 towards further development of their business, as well mentoring sessions by selected business experts.

Our Trash to Trade Business Partners have been extraordinary with their support by identifying business waste, in keeping with sustainable business commitment and supporting emerging up-cycling artisans in developing Trash to Trade designs. Ongoing support options are currently being explored. (BRIGITTE SISTIG)
