1. APOC Store

1.1 What is APOC Store?

APOC Store is a curated online Fashion & Art marketplace dedicated to sourcing progressive and consciously-created pieces from independent designers and artists across the globe.

1.2 What does APOC Store stand for?

APOC is a combination of the words of "Anthropocene" and "epoch"; it is also a play on the word "apocalypse." We live in the Anthropocene - a time where human activity dominates the world we live in with enormous consequences. As a result, a new generation of creatives has emerged who care about the world and want to make a difference.
