Vision Statement:

To be the global leader in creating opportunities for SME brands in retail, enabling brand owners to live their dreams and build businesses that align with their passions.

At IND!E, our mission is to empower and elevate emerging lifestyle brands by providing a curated platform that bridges the gap between SME brands, retailers, and consumers worldwide.
