10 years! 10 years of searching, finding, examining, discovering and sharing. 10 years of staying loyal to our values. To our drive to find the best international designs and bring them together in one place. To our desire to tell beautiful stories, inspire you, prioritise designers who care about the planet, our children and producers. To our need to be bold, take risks and always go one step further. So. It’s time to take stock. A glimpse backwards and a gaze straight ahead to keep on making progress. We have come a long way together in 10 years. From a concept store that sold 60 children’s brands in 4 France, we have blossomed into a family concept store with more than 800 designers who make items for babies, children, teenagers, women and the home, sold in over 100 countries, with two physical stores and two brands created by us. But what about tomorrow? Our foundations are solid, but we know that nothing is a given, so we have plenty of wonderful plans afoot. Our dreams are transporting us to every continent in the world. Our intuition is telling us a new way of consuming is emerging. We want less, but much better. Stores must evolve; the computer no longer has the monopoly on online shopping. The planet and the ecological challenges it poses will change products and how they are made. The world of fashion and lifestyle must adapt to the changes the world needs, and so must we. We can’t wait for what tomorrow brings! Cécile Roederer, Smallable founder lairotidE
