Fempure Mini Marts are women-led community retail hubs designed to improve access to essential menstrual health products while creating sustainable livelihood opportunities for women. Operated by trained women micro-entrepreneurs, these Mini Marts serve as trusted, local access points for affordable menstrual health and wellness products. Beyond retail, the Mini Marts function as community touchpoints for awareness, guidance, and dignity-centered conversations around menstrual health. By linking access with entrepreneurship, Fempure Mini Marts strengthen women’s economic participation while ensuring menstrual health products are available in a respectful and inclusive manner. Fempure Mini Marts function as community hubs, combining retail sales with menstrual health and hygiene (MHM) awareness activities to stimulate sustained demand and informed product choice. By placing women-led retail points within walking distance of underserved communities, the model removes geographic, financial, and social barriers to menstrual products and creates safe, trusted spaces for accessing MHM information. These Mini Marts also serve as consistent and visible points of sale, strengthening Fempure’s brand presence, building customer trust, and driving long-term growth in product uptake within target communities.
