Wimzzi on RTBF: giving a voice to local buying

That morning, Wimzzi took to the airwaves.

Just a few minutes on the radio, but with a powerful message: buying local today is a true societal choice.

Invited to the programme Le 6–8 on RTBF, Laetitia Dangoisse, co-founder of Wimzzi, had the opportunity to speak with Walid, journalist on the show, to share the story of the platform — and above all, the stories of the Belgian artisans and local producers Wimzzi supports every day.

Buying local is not a trend. It’s a commitment.

Behind every creation sold on Wimzzi, there is:

• a workshop,
• craftsmanship,
• skilled hands,
• time,
• and a genuine approach.

On air, Laetitia highlighted this often invisible reality:

local is not a plan B, but a different way of consuming — more conscious, more human and more sustainable.

Wimzzi, a platform… but above all a community

Wimzzi is not “just” a marketplace.

It is a bridge between Belgian makers and consumers, a platform designed to:

• showcase handmade creations,
• support the local economy,
• give real visibility to creators,
• and restore meaning to the act of buying.

The conversation also shed light on a key issue: the importance of offering artisans a professional framework that combines visibility, e-commerce and support — without ever compromising their work or identity.

Why this visibility matters so much

Being on the radio is more than a proud moment.

It’s an opportunity to:

• remind people that Belgian craftsmanship is very much alive,
• show that credible alternatives to e-commerce giants do exist,
• and encourage everyone to consume differently, in their own way.

Every listen, every share, every local purchase matters.
