The Pink Shop (Stanley (administrative centre of United Kingdom dependency))


It's hard to find local made produce especially if you are after souvenirs to take home. Bear in mind that the total population of these islands (not including the British military and support) is under 3000. How many towns do you know of that kind of population make their own souvenirs? So don't get upset if that cuddly penguin you have just bought was actually made in China. However .. you CAN get locally made cuddly penguins at the Pink Shop .. just ask to see the "Baby Kelper" penguins. They also sell a decent range of locally made knitwear, hats, scarves and jumpers.
