marketplace

Donna Fenn, Founder of Remade in Britain

Hi. As one of the founders of Remade in Britain, I came up with the idea as I felt there was a gap in the market. I love working for Remade and watching what once was just idea now grow and come together.

My daily jobs include organising and liaising with the PR company; customers, retailers, the press, accounts, the web development team and payment companies. I love upcycling handmade products with an eco-ethos and have fond childhood memories of watching dad salvage and do DIY.

Michelle Simpson, Business Manager of Remade in Britain

Hello all. I am Business Manager, it is my job to constantly improve the site and to come up with new ideas for our customers and retailers, to promote both press and social media and handle queries from customers, retailers and our PR team and to plan! I’m famous for making lists for everything!

I tweet, take photos for instagram, brief the team, attend networking events and find new retailers and suppliers! I have worked in e-commerce for almost 3 years and as a graphic designer before that; I have plenty of ideas and experience when it comes to online selling and promotion.

When I’m not working, I will be found at my sewing machine or jewellery making tools! I love to keep fit and of course upcycling furniture, clothing and accessories.

We’re so excited to bring together upcycling and vintage folk together into a community, as Britain’s only marketplace we have no intention of stopping! If you would like to showcase your repurposed products or indeed purchase a unique salvaged and sustainable visit us today! Or email us at info@remadeinbritain.com OR join at #remadehour and hashtag your upcycle themed tweets every Wednesday at 8! We would love to hear from you.

Hello again,

Getting closer and closer to the launch of our new marketplace and we are so excited and ever so busy! As we await the soft launch link from our web developers, we thought we would introduce you to our fabulous soft launch team! What’s a soft launch? It’s adding stores and products behind the scenes from real life sellers who will go live when the site does. The best part is that we can do proper testing and make sure everything is as good as it can be for our official marketplace launch!
