ABOUT

What our Merchants
and their customers
are saying

I love Welcome Merchant – in a time when trying to do the right thing seems overwhelming and full of Catch-22’s, it’s great to have a guide.

Content warning, image on Slide 4 may be distressing⁠ to some. Pakistani cuisine is often underrated in Australia, but @sultanaalia is trying to change that. Pakora, paratha rolls, samosas and biryani were the most popular dishes at Alia Sultana's (sadly, now-closed) restaurant in Melbourne. ⁠ #welcomewednesday Today we officially welcome our awesome volunteer events photographer, @poppytography. ⁠ Psst....have you heard of The Lowdown? If you love recommendations like we do, sign up to The Lowdown, our monthly e-newsletter. For our next issue coming out on January 15, we'll give you our 2022 podcasts, books & film recommendations, all refugee-powered!⁠ Reposted from @icamebyboat Tell us again, why can’t we afford free Rapid Antigen tests? 🤔 #GIVEAWAY CLOSED! We got over 100 entries when we first shared this last week, but we thought it's fair to post a reminder! The winner will be chosen on January 13. Love shopping for good? This gorgeous print by @wendysharpeart for the @asylumseekerscentre is for sale on their website. It's sold as a tea towel but we're certainly going to frame & hang it instead. Love wine and #Givingback? @munificentwines is offering you a chance to do both!⁠
