Final preparations for Bubble: The Kids Trade Show this Weekend!
The countdown to Bubble begins, and Green Nippers are excitedly counting down the hours until we can show our collections of organic baby clothes and organic childrens clothes to lots of potential stockists. We exhibited back in January (which seems like only last month!), and there was an increase in international buyers. It would be fantastic if we could gain additonal international stockists. Here you can view our current list of Green Nippers stockists. We will update you after the show about how we get on!

Green Nippers have returned back from Newcastle
Following our success at the Living North Christmas Fair in November we decided to return back to Newcastle Racecourse this Spring! We had a very busy and successful few days at the show. It was just great to see returning customers who bought from us at the Christmas Fair, who now have other friends or relatives with new born babies to buy for! It was of course great to meet so many new customers too :-) We were also in talks with a new shop that will be opening in Ponteland later this year, so watch this space! Green Nippers will soon be stocking in a shop in the North East!

Fairtrade Fortnight 2011

Fairtrade Fortnight (28th February – 13th March 2011)

Green Nippers are big supporters and believers of Fairtrade. We believe it is very important how and where our clothes, and other products are made. Our products are ethically manufactured in a textile factory based in Istanbul in Turkey, who ethically produces high quality organic products.  We have visited the bright, clean and spacious factory where the Green Nippers products are made.  It was reassuring to see that all their employees had excellent working conditions, were not over worked, were paid fairly and most importantly they was no child labour.

All our products are ‘ethically’ and ‘fairly’ traded but the Fairtrade certification does not apply to the production of the Green Nippers products as Turkey is a not a developing country. Therefore the Green Nippers products, although ethically made, cannot carry the Fairtrade certification mark.

We visited the Lake District on the weekend and it was great to see some of the support that has been given for Fairtrade. We took this picture outside St. Andrew’s Parish church in Coniston:

Show your support this Fairtrade fortnight

The Baby Show was a great success!

We have now returned and recovered from The Baby Show, London Excel! We had a brilliant show, and it was great to see so many new and repeat customers. We had quite a few parents who visited our stand that purchased some Green Nippers products last year and unfortunately their babies have now grown out of them 

But it was lovely to hear great reviews from them about how well they washed and were easy to care for – and they even recommended them to their friends that were having/ just had babies. They don’t need to be too upset that their babies do not fit in our clothes any more as our new collection up to 5 years will be launched in August 2011.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at The Baby Show and have already booked to do the show again next year! Shortly after the show we booked to do The Baby Show in Birmingham in May 2011 and The Baby Show in Earls Court in October 2011. We are already excited to be exhibiting at the 2 other shows, especially the Earls Court show as we will be launching our new collection up to 5 years!

Ready for Day One at The Baby Show and Some Good News!!

We are now in London at The Baby Show, our stand looks lovely We set it up this afternoon and have taken some pictures to show you all! We also forgot to mention that we our mannequin is making it’s first appearance at a show! We thought it would be beneficial to our customers that they got to see how our gorgeous organic baby grows looked on a model. Our mannequin (yet to be named – please email us with any suggestions!!) will be wearing the Green Nippers Apple Blossom organic girls baby grow and matching hat in the lovely girly rose colour.

And now for our good news … 3 of our outfits have been chosen for the fashion show! We are very excited that 3 of our baby outfits will be worn by some very cute baby models up and down the catwalk in London. It is still to be confirmed which outfits will be on the catwalk but we will certainly be taking some pictures tomorrow. Hopefully many of you who are attending the fashion show will get chance to see our outfits on the fashion show, which is on at 11.30am everyday (Friday, Saturday and Sunday!)

Final Preparations for The Baby Show, London Excel

We are getting very excited about exhibiting at The Baby Show, London Excel from the 18th to the 20th February 2011 … only a couple of days to go now. We have been very busy getting all of our stock together and will be loading up the van with our gorgeous organic baby clothes tomorrow!

We managed to source some pure organic cotton buds from a recent trip to Spain so it will be great to take them to the show to educate our customers about how our garments start! Our products start their life from an organic cotton plant which is grown in a field in Turkey without the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides, and finally blossoms into a gorgeous and colourful organic baby product! There are many stages along the way, which are closely monitored by the Control Union, but we think it is fascinating how our organic baby products start their life!!

We will be very busy getting our final bits and pieces together before the show so will update you all once we’re there …

Also we are currently waiting to find out if our organic baby outfits have been chosen for fashion show, fingers crossed our gorgeous baby clothes will have been selected for the catwalk!
