Millie and Ralph expands into larger premises

Grimsby based indie, Millie and Ralph, will open in a larger store in Louth, opposite its warehouse.

After just one year of trading, the retailer, owned by Charlotte and Ben Ashcroft, will open the new shop on Fairfield Industrial estate, in a spacious site with ample parking.

Charlotte told GrimsbyLive: “The past year has gone far better than we ever thought it would. We even have people travel from all over the country to come and buy our products. It’s nice to know the brand has gone further than just the local area.

“We think we can improve on this further in Louth and we also have our own parking which is great. Being opposite the warehouse means we can access everything easier too, and the team can work as one rather than going from site to site.”

The new store will open on 22 September with a range of offers and deals for customers, as well as a competition to win a 100cm Miffy teddy with all proceeds going to Lily’s Rainbow Fund Charity.

Charlotte concluded: “The team are just so happy to be coming together and to be opening the new store. The dream now is just to keep expanding and maybe become a chain as well as a household name.”
