SWEAT RECORDS TAKES OVER RAGTRADE

Viva La Rag*Trade!



Rag*Trade has now been officially adopted by the Sweat Records familia! I started Rag*Trade in early 2007 because I felt Miami needed a store like this; green, funky, affordable, no attitude, and good for the community. I feel I’ve accomplished these things and the love from all of you supports these feelings. I wanted to cultivate our little corner of the world with something fresh and beautiful. Rag*Trade will continue to be a hub for local designers to showcase and sell their designs and art work, and will continue to be Miami’s only clothing exchange, in addition Rag*Trade will have a new section dedicated to selling local band merchandise. Our city is changing by the day, with new construction booming and busting, it’s essential that small, independent businesses continue to thrive, otherwise the city risks loosing its soul to mega-business and corporate brands. For me, Rag*Trade is a stand against all of that; It’s a place for subculture, green ideologies, and creating community. Miami always gets a bad rap when it comes to “conscious business” (or conscious anything, really), but slowly that’s changing and Rag*Trade is happy to be a part of this new wave.






Personally, I’m off to do a little traveling, a little farm living, and a little soul searching. But I will return with an arsenal of new projects and ideas I can’t wait to share with you all. Please continue to support Sweat Records and Rag*Trade and come by and meet the very charming new owners.






The schedule from here on out is as follows: Rag*Trade will be closed for a bit (May 2-9) while it undergoes some restocking.



On May 9 Rag*Trade will reopen and then on May 30 is the Grand Re-Opening Party! So mark your calendars and clean your closets out for some rag trading!


If you need further information about Rag*Trade please contact Sweat Records at:
305.758.5862 ext. 5.











Love Love Love,



Stephanie Spiegel

Founder of Rag*Trade: Happy Clothing Co.
