Why did you choose to enter Gift of the Year 2021 and has the competition helped boost your brand in the past?

This is the first time I have entered this competition and I am very excited, I have chosen to do so due to the reputation and the prestige of The Giftware Association.

Has your business been affected by Covid-19?

I have launched my business during Covid-19 so being in this situation is 'normal' for me.

I have been passionate about soap making for a couple of years now. I guess lock-down and the whole experience has changed me and I have decided to follow my dream, I took the plunge and launched my business during the pandemic and the economic downturn.

Covid 19 does bring its challenges, I am not able to sell my soap to real customers as much as I would love to, the supply chain is affected sometimes as well. But I am very excited to be introducing Mama Bee Soaps to the British public and beyond, this is my passion and my homage to the English honeybee! I have no regrets so far :)

What changes have you made as a result?

Not many, shipping times take longer so it is all about managing customer expectations.
