In the first of our St Stephen Street Series, we welcome Bon Tot. Established in 2014, Bon Tot is a modern kids store. Whilst primarily known as a childrensware shop, they stock a growing range of sustainable lifestyle products and have this year upped their eco credentials even further by launching a buy back scheme, Bon Voyage.
We talked to the shop's wonderful founder, Kristina, about her idea for the business, how they’ve evolved during the 6 years they've been open, why they’ve decided to change things up and why authenticity is at the core of everything they do.
