A Glasgow business has launched a fundraiser to help them stay afloat after a "difficult year".
Popular enterprise Locavore announced the closure of its Garnethill shop last week, citing the cost of living crisis.
They called it a "difficult decision".
Now, the organic retailer launched a fundraiser to help them cope with increasing costs.

On Facebook, they said: "We've had a difficult year following fast expansion which saw us open new shops in Garnethill, Kirkintilloch and Edinburgh as well as buy new land for organic growing, and open a new hub for our veg box and wholesale orders.
"The cost of living crisis combined with new shops not being as busy as we had hoped means we are now in a very vulnerable position.
"This now leaves us with very few options but to make difficult cuts and savings in order to secure our future. We've now closed our Garnethill branch and are making lots of other changes to reduce costs and make what we do profitable across the whole of Locavore.
"It's going to be hard."
