Commission it - Expert Impact

Amin Saleem,

Commission it

Met with Nicholas Wheeler

We help clients to create, design and produce totally bespoke unique artistically inspired works. These might be furniture, shop displays, event stands or private or public art commissions. We use traditional artisan or computer enabled manufacturing technology all under one roof and at competitive rates.

We have pledged to give 51% of our profits to a couple of organisations. Aid to Artisans help artists around the world to support themselves through art and Precious Plastic exist to reduce plastic waste. We are working on helping turn plastic waste into art and furniture.

A project we have already started supporting is Kiva. So far we have supported 7 people in 4 countries with micro loans to help them support themselves around crafts, farming and education.

Nick was able to bring his tremendous experience to the table to help me to refocus my strategy in order to help me to realise my vision.
