Sheffield - Evolution Stores

Our business has grown from a London market stall in 1980, through temporary shops, to a chain of shops across the UK and Eire. We are a values driven business and those values remain as essential to Evolution now as they were 30 or so years ago. Our main aim is to make profit to give to the charity that owns Evolution, the Windhorse Trust. How we do this is essential to us and our values underpin our other aim to consider the ethical and environmental implications of all our business activities. We believe it is possible to pay our suppliers a fair price for their goods and to make sure that they have safe working conditions. We also believe that it is possible to offer our customers an honest price without loading on a premium because our goods are ethically traded. We are a Buddhist business and the teachings of the Buddha are the source of our values and ethics. This means that all our business decisions are guided by the teachings on kindness, generosity and honesty.
