Evie Fox-Read is a lady on a mission to grow her interior fragrance brand and have fun doing it.
Fox Cub & Co is an interior fragrance company with every product being produced by Evie and her team in Cheshire.
The business launched with just six candle fragrances in March 2021 and now has a wide range of soy wax candles, diffusers, wax melts and more recently, handwash and hand lotions.
Using the finest ingredients and materials from UK-based businesses to make their products, Evie loves to support other small businesses and is passionate about ensuring that Fox Cub & Co adheres to the highest of standards.
Starting a business is never easy and there’s always lots to learn, much of it on the job and in a bit of a whirlwind!
Emma talks to Evie about where her business idea came from, setting it all up, starting to do shows, working with her husband and just generally coping with the sheer workload involving in doing it all.
You can find Evie’s website here and on instagram here.
You can listen to the podcast on Substack, Apple Podcasts or Spotify Podcasts.
