Women owned stores that stock flax and loom
The landscape of business is changing, more women than ever are running their own small businesses. Female-owned businesses have risen by 18 per cent since 2017, now accounting for 29 per cent of all small businesses in the UK. To celebrate Women Entrepreneurs day we would like to showcase some of the wonderful women owned businesses that Flax & Loom work with. We are incredibly proud to be a part of these independent businesses and couldn’t miss the opportunity to give them a shout out.
