Portsmouth Shop is OPEN!

PORTSMOUTH — When green retailer 1 World Trading Co. took off in Nashua following its March 2008 opening, owners Paul and Karen Keegan set their sites on Portsmouth.

A waning recession, government stimulus money that saved $10,000 in small business loan application fees, and the Seacoast's eco-friendly reputation enabled them to expand with a new location on Congress Street.

For Paul Keegan, who will run the Portsmouth shop while Karen manages the Nashua location, it's a perfect fit.

"I think people are more socially conscious here in Portsmouth," Paul Keegan said. "The education level, the caring level in this community seems to be very high, and I just think it's a good mix."

The store sells earth-friendly goods, including fair trade, recycled and locally made products.

"Our tag line is we're purveyors of goods that benefit the planet and the people who live on it," Keegan said. "We're above all a green store."

Almost Ready to Open!

The floor in the Portsmouth store is finally complete! I t looks fabulous. Should just be a few more days, of setting up fixtures and moving in merchandise. In the meantime... We have several new arrivals in the Nashua shop. Stop in and visit!
