jhappi

jhappi opened it's fifth store at the iconic Taj Fort Aguada Resorts and Spa, Candolim, Goa It's the next step in our resolve to create markets for high quality products made by the nonprofit sector. These products can successfully compete with the heavily marketed commercial products on quality and uniqueness (without seeking compassion) We thank all our makers and partner NGOs for delivering consistent quality, unique designs and choosing to create a life of dignity We thank our customers (both retail and institutional) for partnering in this journey We thank entire team at jhappi for their commitment to creating larger markets for our makers Our success is success of the marginalized makers who have started contributing to the economy, our success is also the success of mindful buyers who have option to choose commercial products.

Select your own gift ! We helped multiple clients curate beautiful gifts for their teams and here at jhappi we gave the autonomy to our teams to select their own favorites from their own stores . It was a unique experience to have them own their aspirations with jhappi . Thank you Pratishtha C. & Chetan Divekar for leading Goa & Retail from the front. Happy Diwali to one & all. #marketinggoodness

Ambiguity ! Ambiguity , chaos , mess , uncertainty are very uncomfortable for me. I now realize how I kept away from it and led a linear life where all was kind of known or predictable , organized. Any ability to face difficulty appeared like resilience. And now at jhappi I am in a complete uncomfortable zone. We are growing and so our team sizes but not in the proportion . We are growing but not our physical infrastructure in that proportion. We are aiming high but we don't know when we suddenly move into the next orbit. This ride is adventurous & uncomfortable & satisfying all at the same time. Entrepreneurship has put me on a sinusoidal curve, learning it all. These pictures are of our 1st store in Thane which has covered us under all circumstances. We started retail from here , extended it to create warehouse and then overnight it becomes packaging & dispatch center. Sometimes a studio for bulk buyers , corporates , wedding families to see the range and Sometimes assembly line for packing it all up. We run it all from this 300 sq ft because we have a team that believes we can. Mind unsettling mess & chaos is the new way of life. Learning , but cannot master as mostly out of syllabus. :) Thank you Bipin Joshi for showing me the mess 😁 #enterprenuership #ambiguity

Some curations bring the memories back ! 6 old home made recipies remind me of childhood Diwali chores..... Danglers made of palm leaves that decorate the doors... Those earthen diyas are symbolic of the festival over the years .... Coming together of friends, families brought celebrations & cheers .... Alive some memories Revive some lives jhappi gifts ... coming from Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu & Punjab #marketinggoodness #diwaligifting #ngoproducts #livelihoods

Products reach where makers may not reach Makers are not employable (in organized sector) but their products are appreciated by the top CHROs. Do we see an opportunity for the marginalized makers to be active economic contributors? Do we witness 'Inclusion' beyond the boardroom discussion? Will you choose impact products like these in the next event over machine made/ cheap imports? We are thankful to the Metamorphose team to have included two of jhappi products in the event memorabilia as we continue our endeavor to metamorphose a few lives with our partners BuddhaLand Co. and Yoshita Crafts Studio.

I feel like the truck driver ! Feel blessed to be of some help for these village women who have the determination and only needed their creations to reach the rest of the country. Diwali Diyas will be loaded in this truck and delivered across the country. Made in a remote village in Tamil Nadu. I feel like a truck driver, collecting lights & spreading jhappi 🤗 Link of the diya in the comment. #marketinggoodness #ngoproducts

Moving from Pre primary to Primary in a day ? We had got our 1st order for coasters a month back where the makers ( slum dwelling women from Powai) were felicitated by the client . These women witnessed something they could not have dreamt of. Luxurious setting of a premium hotel, air journey to Kerela, being driven in a car to the venue ......no this was nothing .... they witnessed respect , they saw people's standing ovation when they came to the stage to be honored, they experienced validation! That was the day the inside of them changed and now they bagged an order for A4 size paintings , their hands are steady , they have a bigger canvas .. Sometimes you don't have to be taught to grow up ! You rise to the occasion!! Super proud of jhappi as a bridge that's created for more ambitions to be discovered. pc : Shakti, jhappi partner NGO #marketinggoodness #ngoproducts #livelihoods
