What the Dragonfly Trading Company
does and why
|
"one cannot help but be inspired by peoples ingenuity, creativity and desire to create a better life for ones self"
|
Having lived in South Africa for some 40 years (from the age of 10), during which time I travelled the
country extensively, one cannot help but be inspired by peoples ingenuity, creativity and desire to create
a better life for ones self. This is especially highlighted in the rural areas, where even the basics, which
we often take for granted, are not available. Much progress has been, but more still has to be done to ensure
that those who live amongst the highlands of Zululand or in the Valley of a 1000 Hills have the basics,
such as clean water, electricity and education for all.

"I have visited numerous small community self help projects, always taking away,
not just a few items of interest but also a feeling of wanting to do something more."

Over the years I have visited numerous small community self help projects, always taking away,
not just a few items of interest but also a feeling of wanting to do something more.
I have travelled back to South Africa on a regular basis, and each time I have visited those projects
that have inspired me with their passion, creativity and commitment to succeed.
I always take with me
items not readily available locally and an ample supply of new ideas, which are always greeted with much
appreciation. We sit and discuss possibilities, by the time I leave they
have normally already made some samples.
"Enter Dragonfly Trading Company!
It is our mission to ensure that these community projects
thrive and prosper, in order that they can enjoy the basics of life."

This is so important. Why? to ensure that everyone remains motivate to succeed and more significantly,
to maintain sales, due to the fact that local, disposable income is diminishing, so it is imperative
to introduce new products on an ongoing basis, in order to maintain interest.
Enter Dragonfly Trading Company! It is our mission to ensure that these community projects
thrive and prosper, in order that they can enjoy the basics of life.
All we can ask you to do is to view their stories and ranges of products and maybe purchase
some unique gifts or items for your home, and if you have any suggestion or ideas, please let us
know, we can all help make their lives a little easier!
