Lola
Woof. I am Lola the Portuguese Pointer. I come to work most days and I help around the office by tidying up any lost food, sleeping and snoring loudly. I love watching the birds out of the window but get annoyed when I can’t chase them. My favourite thing is racing around under all the desks over and over again! I would love to hear from any other office dogs, please send me a photo!
We believe fully in the ethical principles behind the brands we represent and are always keen to share their stories with our customers. We are proud to work with some of the original sustainable brands on the market and love having a close relationship with such innovative founders.
One of our main priorities is delivering excellent customer service. Our background in retail means we have a keen understanding of the retail landscape and are tuned into consumer demands and trends. Find out more about working with us here: Become a Stockist.
