n a bid to increase the younger generation's interest in local culture, Jakarta-based curated store The Goods Dept and e-commerce platform Tokopedia have collaborated to launch a special collection themed #LocalFirst.
The series of so-called GOODS Dotplus capsule collection is said to offer unique ideas and designs and was created in conjunction with various collaborators, including artists, musicians and communities as well as iconic local brands like Indomie, Disc Tarra and Restoran Sederhana.
"By combining local Indonesian [values] in music, art and cuisine, we want to invite the country's young people to be confident with their local uniqueness.
