Because The Time Has Come…

Remember those days when life was easier, simpler and a bit more personal?  Remember those days when small was more beautiful?  When local was somewhat sustainable?   What happened?

In 1955,  one third of North America’s GDP was controlled by Fortune 500 companies.   By 2005 their portion grew to more than half.    Millions of family farms, Mom & Pop stores and other small businesses were therefore replaced by large corporations such as Wall Mart and other giant enterprises, leading to polarization of wealth and marginalization of creativity among most of us.  This is NOT good!

Cyrka was born to bring the ‘local’ and the ‘small’  back into focus.  It was born out of the desire to develop an ecosystem that enables ‘local conversations’ and ‘social commerce’ both at the same time.   It was built based on the fundamental beliefs that ‘real communities develop from within and that magic happens when we connect’.   It was born to connect.

At inception, Cyrka introduces a local directory of  businesses, free-lancers, artists and home offices offering visibility to all.   It also offers an inclusive business club that connects local entrepreneurs for new business relationships.   New features and tools are in the works as we speak, to establish a new “Local Ecosystem Model” unlike what we have seen so far.

So, please feel free to browse around and become a part of this new initiative.   This journey has just begun and we’d love to have you with us.
