Tidy Books launch award winning products in Europe
Kind und Jugend 15 – 18th September 2011, Cologne, Germany Hall 11.1 Stand C49
Tidy Books Europe Limited the award winning UK children’s bookcase and Storage Company, will be exhibiting for the first time at Kind und Jugend this year, and launching two new products at the show. It is actively seeking new retailers and distributors to assist with its planned expansion throughout Europe.
Tidy Books Europe Ltd is a well- established UK company, making eco-friendly bookcases, book boxes and bunk bed shelves, and other storage products. Its innovative designs are stocked in national retail chains, including John Lewis and Mothercare, as well as hundreds of children’s stores. The company expanded into the USA and Australia following its phenomenal success in the UK and is delighted to bring Tidy Books’ designs to a wider international audience at Kind und Jugend.
Tidy Books’ products are innovative, unique, and stylish, creating a range of modern classic designs to complement the original bookcase. Parents know what works for their families and Tidy Books meets those needs and have proven to be incredibly popular. Parents will be delighted with the two new products from this dynamic company as they fulfil Tidy Books’ principle of stylish, common sense design that meets the needs of children and their lives.
The Tidy Books’ story began with its unique front facing bookcase, specially designed for the home. Tidy Books’ founder Geraldine Grandidier explains; "I could not find the bookcase I wanted for my daughter. Traditional bookcases, decorated or not, don’t work well for children. Their outsized books don’t fit easily on traditional bookcases, and pre-readers recognise books by covers not titles. I wanted a bookcase that worked well for kids, and that looked great in the home. So, I created the original Tidy Books bookcase in my violin maker’s workshop, and all my designs since then are practical, stylish solutions to everyday problems in the family home."
The Tidy Books stand is inspired by Jules Verne’s "Around the World in 80 Days," and will mark the occasion with a themed Tidy Books Bunk Bed Buddy.
