How shopping Sooness on Avendi Local works
Sooness is a verified maker based in Okinawa listed on Avendi Local, the managed marketplace for handmade and locally-produced goods. We do not act as a re-seller or a tourist-grade gift shop — every product on this page is fulfilled directly by Sooness, at the same price you would pay on the maker's own channel, with Avendi Local acting as the merchant of record so you get a single, traceable order.
Before any maker is published on Avendi Local they pass our Avendi Authentic KYB process — we verify the legal entity behind the brand, confirm where the products are made, and check that pricing matches the maker's own retail. The badge on this profile means Sooness cleared that review and remains in good standing. If the maker delists from Avendi Local for any reason, this profile is removed; nothing here is scraped or syndicated without permission.
Orders for Sooness are paid through Avendi Local and fulfilled within Okinawa — we deliver to any address inside the city, whether that's a hotel, an apartment, a residential home, or an office. The only condition is that the delivery address sits within Okinawa city limits; Avendi Local does not currently offer cross-city or international shipping. Returns and refunds are handled by Avendi Local, not by the individual maker, so you have a single point of contact for the entire order.
If you are buying Sooness for the first time and need anything specific — gift wrapping, multi-product bundles, occasion-specific notes, or a delivery instruction for the hotel — add it to the Special Requests field at checkout and we will coordinate with the maker on your behalf.
