Scout Impact

Empowering Communities, One Creation at a Time

At Scout, we believe that every purchase is more than a transaction — it is an act of empowerment, connection, and cultural preservation. Our impact goes beyond the marketplace; it lives in the hands and hearts of the artisans, makers, and small businesses we support every day.

Supporting Women-Led and Local Businesses

A core pillar of Scout’s mission is to empower women-led enterprises and local creative talents across the Arab world. By providing these entrepreneurs with access to wider markets, dedicated promotion, and capacity-building support, we help them grow sustainably and achieve economic independence.

Preserving Heritage, Celebrating Creativity

Scout is dedicated to preserving the rich artistic heritage of our region. We work with artisans who use traditional techniques passed down through generations, ensuring these crafts continue to thrive in modern markets. Each product reflects a story of culture, passion, and craftsmanship that strengthens our shared identity.

Enabling Sustainable Growth

We champion slow, mindful consumption. By highlighting quality over quantity and authenticity over mass production, Scout promotes a more sustainable approach to retail. Our partnerships and curated collections are designed to create long-term value for both our creators and our customers.

Creating Social and Economic Impact

Through Scout, artisans and small businesses gain new revenue streams, increased visibility, and opportunities for cross-border expansion. We are proud to be a catalyst for job creation, community resilience, and social impact — transforming lives, families, and entire communities through the power of creativity.

Join Our Movement

When you shop at Scout, you don’t just choose a product — you invest in people, stories, and a vision for a more inclusive, creative, and connected world. Together, we can build a thriving ecosystem where talent is celebrated, traditions are preserved, and local businesses flourish.
