Meet the women behind CG

This International Women’s Day we wanted to take a moment of appreciation for some of the women that contribute to the success of CG. Read more about them all below and what their favourites are from the new season...
"Running a business is about respectful partnerships – with customers, with suppliers and most important, with the people with whom you work.  You can't do everything on your own, you need people and good people.  We are very lucky that we have a fabulous team, and we value every member of it."
- Caroline Gardner, Founder

Meet Emma, our Commercial Director 

Emma, our fearless Commercial Director, has been with us for over 9 years! From moving house to DIY challenges and marathons to balancing parenthood, she embraces every task and maintains her contagious spirit. She is a big fan of our pet accessories, and her dog, Dinky, gives her pawprint of approval too!

Meet Kyra, our Head of Marketing

Kyra, our marketing magician, quickly became an invaluable asset to the team a year ago. Juggling young children and spinning many plates she effortlessly manages it all with her warm and vibrant personality shining through. Kyra's top pick from the new collection are the large wash bags with two clever compartments, perfect for holidays as everything is conveniently in one place!
