IT'S RUFF AND TUMBLE'S BIRTHDAY
Celebrating 10 years of how we've grown
R&T is ten years old this year and we’re feeling a little bit nostalgic! Looking back over all the Facebook/Instagram posts, photos and mailers has been fascinating. The early years were all about shows and sheer graft and as time has gone on, we’ve become more innovative and determined to continually improve.
When I retired from teaching music ten years ago, I never imagined I’d invent a cotton towelling Drying Coat for wet dogs and start a business! Fast forward 10 years and we’ve grown from one, (me!) to 10 employees, we sell 65,000 coats a year, attend up to 50 shows, have seven products, 450 stockists and sell coats all over the world. Thanks to our customers, we’ve come a long way, as you’ll see as we look back over the ten years!
Thank you so much – our success is yours,
Alison XX
