MONTHLY NEWS & UPDATES
May 2022
Greetings,
It was so wonderful seeing so many of you at our International Mixer on April 14. The Hotel Indigo Vinings was a great venue and we enjoyed live music, finger foods, drinks and great company.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone at our Sweden Day event. A huge THANK YOU to our sponsors: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Accountants One, The Embassy of Sweden, Arnall Golden Gregory, The Scandinavian Festival and SWEA.

Our Sweden National Day celebration is an event people look forward to and after two years of adapted versions of this event it is now back in a traditional format. This event usually attracts around 100 guests from the Swedish and international community. This year it is hosted at the historic Mary Gay House in Decatur, GA
Regards,
Ida Pond

WELCOME NEW SACC GA MEMBERS
Sought + Found Mercantile has an online store offering high-quality gift items that are sourced from small businesses/manufacturers either here in the US or globally. Their warehouse and showroom (not open to the public, but through appointment) is in Marietta. Their mission is to introduce products that are made in small batches, either by hand, or created locally – providing support not only for their small business, but those who they have made genuine connections to over the last few years. They support many small woman-owned and minority-owned businesses; their line of decorative pillows is made here in Georgia by a local non-profit that empowers refugee women by teaching them to sew. Their connection to Sweden is through one of the artists they carry on their site (Nadja Wedin), and they are always on the lookout for more Swedish artisans.
Green Boom is reducing plastic waste with the only 100% biodegradable line of oil-only absorbents. Available in pillows, socks, booms and loose forms and designed for large spill response, industrial and transportation MRO and safety spill kits, it is the only solution that yields no waste and leaves no trace.
