How it started

On an eye opening trip to Ghana in 2017, Becky met with local artisans to experience the traditional crafts of glass bead making and batik wax printing, skills that have been preserved and passed down through generations. The quality and artistry involved in the creation of these products left a lasting impression. Returning to the fast fashion industry after her experiences in Ghana, Becky quickly became frustrated with the retail industry. The lack of ethics, murky manufacturing chains and quantity over quality approach led her to leave Switzerland and her Senior Print design role to return to the UK where Textile Candy emerged.
