I am incredibly thankful to John Lewis for the opportunity to showcase my small business, The Cornish Surfer, through their in-store pop-up shop initiative with Popup Indie. This week has been nothing short of amazing, with an overwhelming response to the quality of my products—feedback that fills me with pride and gives me the boost every small business owner needs!
To all my wonderful new customers: thank you for choosing to support a small, British-made business.
As many of you know, all my designs are lovingly created in Cornwall, from the comfort of my loft studio overlooking the ocean. This panoramic view of the sea is my constant source of inspiration, where I watch the waves roll in, breathe in the salty air, and dream up the designs and color palettes that define The Cornish Surfer.
At the heart of my business ethos is a commitment to sustainability and ethical production. I strive to partner with factories as close to home as possible and use materials that are kind to the planet, keeping my carbon footprint to a minimum.
A huge thank you to those of you who choose to shop local, shop small, and shop British-made. Seeing my sales at John Lewis reflect your support reassures me that I must be doing something right!
Looking ahead, I’m excited to share that I plan to host more pop-ups with John Lewis in 2025, bringing The Cornish Surfer to coastal towns across the UK. Keep following me for updates—hopefully, I’ll be coming to a town near you soon!
Lastly, please don’t forget to leave me a Google review. This is one of the best ways for me to grow my online presence and continue creating products you love. Click on the link ‘google review’. Your feedback truly means the world to me!
