With over 15 years of experience in the leisure and hospitality industry, Samantha Rowley-Corns had always wanted a business of her own. Last year, after becoming a proud mum to her own ‘Little Dot,’ Lottie, who is the inspiration behind the brand, Rowley-Corns decided it was now or never. With a focus on quality, sustainability and creating a joyful experience for children and adults alike, the Little Dots children’s concept store opened in April combining retail, food and beverage.
Specialising in sustainable products sourced locally where possible, Little Dots wants to be known for quality products that can be passed on. Alongside vibrant and playful children’s clothes that are made to last, the store also stocks toys and accessories for young children. Brands currently include Ducky Zebra, House of Margaux, Turtledove London, Pebble Child, Inside Out Toys, The Little Sock Company, and Ivy & Noah.
Rowley-Corns’ vision is for Little Dots to be a hub for the local parenting community. Over the next 12 months, she will be building the store’s community events programme, including reaching out to groups and classes to see how they can mutually support one another. Little Dots is an ambitious business with long-term goals including the opening of more stores.
