Story
Fetch’em from the Cupboard strives to help everyone reduce their impact on the environment. We have succesfully partnered with Greenwise in Fetcham to bring loose foods and zero waste cleaning products to the local community and we want to widen our reach and make the difference we are enabling even bigger.
We have an earlier than expected opportunity to expand our little business, in addition to being in Greenwise; we want to move into a premises in Ashtead Village. The project comes with significant investment and we are reaching out to see if you can help us raise enough just to cover the capital expenses we have estimated is needed.
Money raised will help us buy new produce fridges, freezers, plant mylk, juice and ice makers, product dispensers. If we exceed our target, it helps us bring later developments forward and bring more eco-friendly lines to you sooner.
The plan is to bring this to the community as soon as we can and we will be working hard regardless but if you can give us even a little bit of help it would help us keep costs lower, which means we can keep prices lower.
Thank you in advance for reading our plea and we hope to see you in Fetcham over the coming weeks and Ashtead really soon.

5 years agoNot sure whether you may have seen or heard, but we have had a good little run on publicity in the last week or so. More people are learning about the Cupboard and coming to take a look. We have had a cash injection by way of investment from a loyal customer which is definitely going to help us in the short term. We still have some large investments to make however, and decisions need to be made soon on the items we are going to purchase. Any support from the community would be greatly appreciated to keep our costs down. Thank you!

5 years agoTHANK YOU! The amount raised so far will pay for the plant milk machine, keep the prices lower and reduce the reliance on the packaging these products currently come in. I have been working on the Ashtead shop set up, speaking to suppliers and getting all the main items lined up this week, to bring more packaging free products to you all. I am getting even more excited at the possibilities out there which I haven’t found yet. Every little bit helps towards bringing you a great community resource to be proud of :)

The goal of the company is to help our local community to reduce their impact on the environment. Plastic is avoided in the supply chain wherever possible and we support local and UK based companies first before looking elsewhere; e.g. products from Ashtead, Cobham, Guildford.
