This is our blog, having established Eloquent to act as an umbrella for a number of ideas we are about to launch the first - a Children's shoe shop - Raspberry Laces. In setting up this business we have gone through a long journey to learn about retail.

Three months in
We have been trading now for three months and the business is improving and the website is being more active, still lots to sort out but we have just taken some new supply of boots and shoes from Start-rite and Toughees and are looking to get in more brands next year. It seems there is a world supply issue with Wellies and that is our current problem to tackle. Getting the right product at the right place is clearly the mantra we will continue to live and die by. But learning everyday and the shop still looks great ad attracts a great deal of complement from shoppers.
