Time to 'close chapter' at Shakti Man
A Ramsey shop is to close after 18 years.
Shakti Man is a fairtrade store which says it's always been about 'bringing solutions to our global community'.
On social media, owner Leni says "there are so many reasons why it's time to close this chapter".
Hundreds of customers have commented on Facebook sharing sadness about the announcement.
Luke Parker is a business owner and Ramsey commissioner.
Manx Radio asked him if the commissioners could be doing more to help businesses as costs rise:
Business case for horse trams to be put before Tynwald in July
Plans to turn 'underused space' in central Douglas into wellness retreat
Employment grievance 'upheld' against board of Peel Commissioners
