Sisu was created to provide a resource to those who want to shop mindfully, with ease. What does shopping mindfully mean? Shopping businesses that are dedicating themselves to sustainable production methods, offsetting their carbon footprint, giving back to the planet or underserved communities with each purchase, and/or using ethically sourced or recycled materials. There is no planet b. We are here to help you do what you can to better support the fight against climate change.

There are many discussions and articles surrounding the topic of “how you spend your money matters” so we decided to do something about it. Now, more than ever, it seems paramount to direct our money towards better business models that are inclusive and diverse. At Sisu, we want to do away with the “top 10, top 50, top 100 sustainable or small businesses to support” lists. We want to make Sisu a one-stop-shop for all your needs. Shopping with us means you’re doing better for the planet as well as supporting small and/or local business.

Sisu is not exhaustive; in fact, it is being updated every day with stores that are setting the tone for sustainable business. The goal of this resource page is to become an exhaustive list of businesses that support all of our shopping needs. We’re working on it every day.

We’re all in this together. Thanks for joining us.
