Birkenhead recebeu notícias de boas-vindas na semana passada, pois foi revelado que Owen Drew estaria abrindo suas novas instalações no centro da cidade. A empresa mudou -se recentemente de sua casa no Pacific Road Business Center e, desde então, adquiriu uma instalação maior em Wirral Point, mais adequada para aumentar a produção. Fãs de celebridades e prestigiados endossos da revista, a empresa tem origens humildes. Depois de ficar insatisfeito com a qualidade da massa produzida em velas de "supermercado", o fundador Drew Cockton comprou 40 libras de suprimentos da Internet e começou a fazer suas próprias velas usando cera natural e óleos essenciais, antes de vendê -los para criar fayres e eventualmente para outras empresas.
The Wirral-based brand which has a range of over 30 different scented candles, opened the doors to its boutique this week. The company recently moved from its home in the Pacific Road Business Centre and has since acquired a larger premises in Wirral Point, more suited to increased production.
“Birkenhead has had a lot of bad news over the past few years as a number retailers have shut shop and turned their back on the area. We are proud to be flying the flag for Birkenhead and offering customers a luxury shopping experience here in the town centre”.
Despite a host of celebrity fans and prestigious magazine endorsements, the company has humble origins. After being dissatisfied with the quality of mass produced ‘supermarket’ candles, founder Drew Cockton purchased £40 of supplies from the internet and set about making his own candles using natural wax and essential oils, before selling them to craft fayres and eventually to other businesses.
