Store with a Heart may have started as a small online gift store yet it has made its own, sealed by its recent win as Gift Store of the Year 2020/2021. True enough, it worked to deliver on its commitment of making a difference with every gift. From perfect review ratings on different platforms to being hailed as top seller and star seller in online marketplaces, it is true to its aim of providing customer service excellence and high product quality while ensuring financial soundness and achieving its other deliverables. It also focuses on being not just any other business as it also puts sustainability and social consciousness at the forefront of its operations.
“Beyond it all, the laurels are greater reasons for us to strive harder, to keep on producing the best possible outcomes for our customers as well as our other internal and external stakeholders,” says the store’s founder and owner Esperanza Pretila. “Barely a year over since the store was launched, we have already been able to help provide more than 8,000 meals to our less fortunate brothers and sisters via Pledge. Through our Affiliate Program, we also provided an opportunity for individuals and institutions to generate funds for their requirements as well as nobler causes. As part of our goal to be more earth-friendly, we have also partnered with EcoCart, which has enabled us to considerably make progress in achieving carbon-neutrality – something we originally planned to make happen after five years but may be able to achieve earlier than that. Every gift we provide for customers are therefore not only delivered in eco-friendly means but are also 100% carbon-neutral. These and more are part of what we have worked on and will sustain in the coming years.”
