PhilosophyEconomic impact studies nationwide show a "multiplier" effect from buying local: Three times as much money stays in the local economy when you buy goods and services from locally-owned businesses instead of large chain stores. More important though, is connecting with the shop owners, friends and unique businesses that are a part of our community. It is our mission to support our community with fundraisers and social events, local businesses and artisans, and to promote fair trade practices. Tuvalu is a member of Dane Buy Local and is committed to purchasing locally - from our produce, meats and baked goods to local & family owned paper goods supplier. |

HistoryTuvalu Coffeehouse & Gallery opened in April 2007. We saw that the community needed a great family friendly place to relax and enjoy delicious food and beverages as well as a place where we could offer local art and local music. Since its inception, we have aspired to provide the highest quality products using the freshest and best possible ingredients in a manner that promotes sound environmental practices and encourages social awareness and responsibility. |
