Money & Me: ‘My best investment is my education’ – The National

In 2019, Araceli Gallego co-founded Goshopia, a one-stop e-commerce marketplace for eco-friendly fashion, accessories, beauty and home decor.

Born in Spain, Ms Gallego came to Dubai 11 years ago as a hotel project manager. Later, while running an online fashion magazine, she noticed limited support for budding designers and artisans amid the fast fashion industry’s wasteful traits.

Goshopia was initially an online boutique for slow — non-mass produced — fashion and now includes sustainable corporate gifting.
