Taking a product to market can be an intimidating and challenging mountain at the best of times… Especially for the first time. Just as you make one improvement another thing pops up. It’s like wack a mole Last week however was a nice reminder of why pushing forward makes it all worthwhile. I drove down from London to our partner manufacturer in Cornwall with Cameron Kennedy-McFarlane of In-Col Studio to get some great footage of our production process for a new documentary film, which has been a goal of mine for a long time. Followed by deliveries to some new customers across London. One of which was the first ever prototype I made during lockdown. Surprisingly it was a very emotional moment to say goodbye to. I hung onto it for a little too long to find the right home for it. But I know it’s now gone to a beautiful home. Plus I am packing my first order going to New York 🇺🇸🗽 But my god I’ve got a big challenge to figure out international packaging and shipping sofas internationally. Luckily it’s ships flat pack. Can anyone help?

You should have said you were in Cornwall, we could have met up for a coffee
