iHi Partnership with The Prince Edward Island Sea Salt Company
iHi is super excited about its recent partnership with The Prince Edward Island Sea Salt Company. PEI Sea Salt entered its 10th season of operation and has transformed the brand, the story, and the business model to create something much bigger than just fabulous finishing salts. As some of you may know, our founder, Darren C. Blanchard, is also the owner of PEI Sea Salt. And 2020 and 2021 were tough years for tourism and all offshoot industries and businesses that depend on an influx of people. This caused the salt company to redirect operations to the internet and social media to avoid disruption like in 20 & 21. Going from multiple markets and 78 stores across Atlantic Canada in 2019 to an online-only business model. This allowed for the opportunity to give the retail profit to iHi for content, support, and programming for mental health within our Island community.
of ALL Sales to iHi
40% of profits from all sales on Saltsoftheearth.ca go to iHi. We have a few different products and offerings on the website that are all part of our offering under Islanders Helping Islanders. From various locally branded T-shirts and hats, to amazing hand-crafted sea salts and natural organic beard products. We have a variety of quality, unique products on the site where proceeds from every sale go iHi.
HOW TO MAKE THIS A WIN - WIN - WIN
We need your help for this partnership to truly be a win win win situation. We hope you will help us spread the word and bring PEI Sea Salt to as many tables across Canada as possible. If you are not able to purchase the sea salt for yourself, but believe in our mission, please share our content, and mention it to people for great gift ideas. We all eat salt.
Any and all support is appreciated.
