On Saturday 11 July, we celebrated the first edition of Made in Ecuador: Heritage Market, our Ecuadorian entrepreneurs’ fair here in the UK. 🇪🇨❤️
It was a day filled with so many beautiful things: delicious food, incredible music, traditional dance, new connections and, above all, a community that truly showed up to support Ecuadorian entrepreneurs, businesses, artists and organisations. And even though it was incredibly hot, we enjoyed every minute of it — just as only Latinos know how!
We are eternally grateful to every entrepreneur who trusted in us, to our superhero volunteers who helped make the event possible, and to the musicians, dancers and artists who shared their talent, culture and heart with us.
We also want to thank our wonderful Anglo-Ecuadorian Society committee, who worked tirelessly to bring to life something we had dreamed about for a long time. We are incredibly proud to have made it a reality and to have shared it with all of you.
A very special thank you to Balanz UK for sponsoring this event and supporting this initiative. Creating spaces like this is so important for our small businesses and entrepreneurs — spaces where they can showcase their talent, knowledge, work and products, make new connections and continue to grow. Thank you for helping us create a platform that celebrates and gives visibility to the incredible talent within our community.
Thank you also to our wonderful photographer for capturing so many special moments.
And finally, thank you to this incredible community who came along, brought their friends and families, and showed up with open hearts to share this experience with us. Our hearts are truly full of love and gratitude for every single person who joined us.
We’re already dreaming about the next edition!
Thank you. This is the true meaning of community. 🇪🇨✨
