Rattapon needs a cutting table and overlocker to reopen a sewing studio
A sewing studio in Phuket needs help replacing a cutting table and overlocker after a long illness and repossession.
🇹🇭 Phuket, Thailand671 views
For fifteen years I have run a sewing studio in Phuket. In August, a long illness and repossession took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Wednesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 5 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $550 goes:
• Shop repairs and licensing: $85
• Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $370
• Initial stock: fabric: $95
Thank you for reading my story.
