Press Release - March '10 - SnugBaby nominated for Best New Product in National Award

Claire Willis' product, SnugBaby, is shortlisted for 'Outstanding New Product' category of the National Women on their Way awards.

Although women-owned businesses are on the increase there still aren't enough female role models, is the claim of the leading women's organisation, Women on Their Way.

Most people still think that the majority of businesses are run by men due to the stereotypical images that we see all around us.

That's why Claire, 30, from Carlisle, is delighted to be short-listed for the prestigious National Women on Their Way Awards 2010 in the Outstanding New Product category. Claire says, "It's fantastic to have some recognition of the quality of SnugBaby. We are delighted to have been nominated, and over the moon at having been shortlisted." (Read More)
