what is
shareAshelf was started because we believe in empowering local
economies,supporting small businesses, and encouraging
in-person connections
shareAshelf helps hobbyists, retail entrepeneurs, and makers (what we call vendors) get their products
into physical locations by connecting them to local hosts with spare space.

1
You notice on social media that a favourite designer of yours is
selling some of their clothes through a shareashelf collaboration
with a cafe in your town
2
You navigate to shareashelf to see the location of the
collaboration, realise its on your way to the office, so you
make plans to stop off at the cafe for breakfast and take a peek at
the designer's work
3
At the cafe a particular jacket catches your eye, and you decide to
treat yourself. you scan the QR code on information label with
your phone, which takes to an online shop where you pay for
the jacket
4
The last step is to show the payment confirmation to the cafe
staff, put on the jacket, and carry on your way!) The vendor keeps
75% of the payment, a 12.5% commission goes to the host as a
thank you, and the remaining 12.5% towards keeping the website
running.
Simply speaking. shareashelf is away for hosts and vendors to
collaborate and for consumers to find those collaborations on a map.
