We Need Your Help To Showcase Our Beautiful Natural Fragrances To The World! AMIRA Aotearoa - Candles & Gift Sets

Project 2023-05-08 09:19:07 +1200

We are a New Zealand-based brand that is passionate about creating 100% natural, sustainable, and locally made fragrances that remind you how important it is to maintain balance and peace in this busy world.

Our main product, our candles, are more than just a fragrant explosion of goodness - they're a piece of home decor that transports you to a world of cosy vibes. Crafted with care and attention to detail, our candles are so beautiful that you'll want to keep and refill their jars (Yes, we have sustainable refill options!).

We're also proud to incorporate a handmade Kono basket, made using tikanga, into our candle packaging, and are very proud to honour the culture and traditions of Māori. At AMIRA, we believe that supporting our community and our planet is just as important as creating amazing products, so we use only the best, natural ingredients sourced from local businesses.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

We are masters of fragrance but are having trouble each time we try to make that last little link to connection between our products and the world.  We are seeking funding to assist us to:

¨ Work with external marketing & design agencies to develop a robust marketing strategy and grow sales (We also wish to develop procedures to manage and seamlessly update our website, our social channels and ad campaign managers to provide reliable consistent sources of information for our customers)

¨ Develop of our fragrances into diffusers (Reed and Car Diffusers).   This funding will provide us with the backing to engage a reliable business that can provide natural packaging for this product.  The addition of this product would be a huge revenue stream for our business with stockists already indicating that they and their customers would be interested in this product.

Meet the person behind the candles:

As a lifetime candle maker and apprentice weaver, I noticed a gap in the market for 100% natural and sustainable candles that also incorporated the unique cultural traditions of New Zealand. And so, I set out to create something truly special that I believe evoke a calm and warm surrounding and also honour the environment and the rich cultural heritage of our country.

 

From sourcing the highest quality natural ingredients from local businesses to incorporating a handmade Kono basket into our candle packaging, every element of AMIRA has been carefully curated and crafted with intention. And it's this attention to detail and dedication to sustainability and cultural heritage that truly sets us apart.

 

I'm incredibly proud of what we've achieved with AMIRA and I'm so excited to share our fragranced candles with you.
