New Year
Welcome to another year!
Firstly our apologies for the number of "Out of Stock" items. Christmas was a very busy time for us and we are still frantically stocking up and waiting for stock from overseas.
Carhampton eMart has been steadily growing in spite of the recession for which we thank all of you, our old and our new customers.
We are not planning anything major for 2011 just a repeat of the same first class service, customer care and fair prices.
We have been talking to a card distributor of Fair Trade African cards and hope to stock them in time for Easter. We are also hoping to stock a range of Fair Trade bags and Jewellery from India.
