Zamsoe Promotes Female Empowerment and Opportunities through Greeting Cards, Art and Jewelry business

Yarm, Cleveland – Zamsoe has embraced the concept of female empowerment by employing more home workers to meet the demands of its successful greeting cards, art and jewellery business.

“We are offering home workers (the majority who are women) the opportunity to work with us producing high quality hand made products. Many women are often feeling ‘trapped’ at home due to many circumstances such as child care or family commitment and are missing the opportunity and freedom to ‘contribute’ to something other than what they are currently doing. Zamsoe is training these people and giving them renewed confidence and self worth in a flexible and supportive environment designed to meet their needs and our business needs. Hopefully they will use this as a springboard to other things that they may want to do such as college or other work,” says Karen Wanless owner of Zamsoe.

Zamsoe has chosen this, as one method of production in order to meet its social responsibilities as a fast growing business in the UK and is looking to employ a further 20 homeworkers over the next twelve months, who have the skill and commitment that is needed to meet the high standards of its retail and gallery customers.
