Its creators, Chris Bee and Daren Wright, are confident that the Channel Islands’ first online marketplace will continue to grow.

High shipping charges and the Island’s location make it difficult for residents in Jersey and Guernsey to buy and sell goods from and to the UK.
Mr Wright and Mr Bee thought that if there could be a site specifically for Channel Islanders, not only would buyers and sellers in many cases be able to exchange goods in person, but should there be a scam, it would be easier to resolve.
