The Salt manifesto

Championing the indies and making cool stuff happen

Championing the indies and making cool stuff happen 

We stand for community, authenticity and real creativity crafted by humans. 

Through our award-winning design and writing, we champion the independent businesses that make life better. Whether they are serving on-point speciality coffee, delivering exceptional hospitality experiences at beautiful hotels and restaurants, protecting the planet or weaving art through everything they do. 

 ‘Community, authenticity and real creativity crafted by humans’ 

We believe in hooting the horn for indie businesses because they’re the lifeblood of our communities. And they need championing because they’re under immense pressure as they try to compete with large corporations that operate under a different set of rules. 

We consider ourselves warriors, fighting with the power of words and pictures for the independents, while looking after each other, building communities and making cool stuff happen.
