James spills the tea on building Leeds' sustainable fashion empire!
Business coach Chris Fordy sits down with the co-founder who turned a failed New Year's resolution into Yorkshire's most talked-about sustainable fashion store.
What happens when you realise sustainable shopping in Leeds is basically impossible? You create your own solution, obviously.
Chris digs deep with James Fenwick, Director at Tråd Collective, on:
- Why sustainable fashion shopping was a nightmare before Tråd
- The market stall hustle that started it all
- That time they closed Headingley and bet everything on city centre
James co-founded Tråd Collective with Jo after they both got fed up with spending hours digging through charity shop piles and researching whether brands were actually sustainable or just greenwashing.
Chris Fordy is a business coach operating across Yorkshire, helping entrepreneurs build their success stories.
