Last week, I visited award-winning, local business Creative Nature with Trade Minister Conor Burns to hear from Julianne Ponan about her company’s plans for growth.
Julianne and Matt started selling their allergen-free products on the streets of Kingston-upon-Thames. Now, Creative Nature develops an exclusive line of snacks, baking mixes and superfoods - all of which are ‘Top 14 Allergen free’ and Vegan. Their products have won a plethora of awards in the UK and are sold in over 16 countries to a growing global customer base.
Creative Nature and Julianne have worked closely with the Department for International Trade to explore export opportunities around the world and mentor other small businesses looking to do the same.
Thank you to Julianne and the team for your warm welcome.
