NEWS FROM THE NCCC TRADERS BY NATURE
What do you think?

We are slowly moving towards 2020 and we look back upon quite a busy second half of 2019. We introduced a new direction, supported by a new logo and many, different events. Moreover, in the first quarter of 2020, we will launch a completely new website.

It is your turn now. What do you think? 

The NCCC Traders by Nature connect people to create a sustainable positive impact on well-being and prosperity. On people, society and the environment.

How can we further support you? How could we increase our cooperation? What kind of events would you like to participate in? Or co-organise with us? How could we together increase our impact?

We would love to hear from you and continue our journey together.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2020 in all well-being and good prosperity.
