Rachel Jones, Totseat
The award-winning Totseat chair harness, which is now sold in 30 countries around the world, started life from the lining of a wedding dress, cut up in a fury on the kitchen table. Since then, Totseat Ltd has grown from a small business manufacturing in the UK to one now manufacturing overseas and with over 45% of sales generated by exports. Winner of Gift of the Year 2009, Totseat was recently included in the Which? magazine review of highchairs scoring an incredible 79%.
With no experience of manufacturing, sourcing, retailing, wholesaling, finance, export, import or the nursery industry, Rachel Jones is going through an extended and steep learning curve.
