Pookipoiga

Pookipoiga is one of the prominent online gift delivery services (with the most options) from Australia, which includes anything from Fashion to chocolates to books to much much more! Stocking all goodies in their premises in Melbourne on 64 Bridge Road, Richmond."Pookipoiga" is a Finnish word (or in Finnish Pyykkipoika) which literally translates to "little washer boy" or "Laundry boy", which is normally used in Finnish for "clothes peg". The name particularly relates as they are encouraging to clean up landfill in a unique way! Pookipoiga evolved from an idea that the world is a great place and we need to do more to look after it. So, that's a start, but where do we go from here? People love things, so we should probably sell things, but what things? And what could be good for the world? Pookipoiga focus on products that people love and make sure that they are ethical, sustainable and fair trade before it comes into the store. We stock a lot of different goodies, although we are particularly in love with: Australian Natural Soap Company, MORK hot chocolates, Bennetto chocolates, DENZ recycled stainless steel earrings, Champ recycled Aeroplane tyre coasters and earrings, Elvis and Kresse upcycled firehose bags, belts and cufflinks, Sabine and Sparrow baby goodies, Gail C Ceramics, Mojo upcycled candles, Summer Salt Body, Apiary Made beeswax wraps, Topheads sunglasses, Organics for Lily teas, Milton Ashby, Thurlby Herb Farm insect repellents, Lore Lore knitwear, Nine Yaks, Conscious Step socks, and Able and Game cards. A lot of our suppliers do great work with communities, which is a big reason why we work with them, but we also have a spirit of giving in our store (virtual and real). We have fundraising nights with cheese, wine, art and fun - follow on social or subscribe to our newsletter. For every purchase, we donate a meal to vulnerable Australians through SecondBite. You buy something, someone eats something and food doesn't get wasted- win win win!
