The Taste-Makers: Rachel Vosper

"To be named a Walpole 2020 Power List winner is an immense honour and also a testament to the Brands of Tomorrow Programme’s success."  Today we hear from Rachel Vosper, founder of her eponymous brand, a former Brand of Tomorrow participant in 2015, and a Walpole Power List Taste-Maker for 2020. Rachel is one of Walpole's greatest advocates, and here she shares why the Brands of Tomorrow programme was so special for her and her business, and how she's maintained the magic of a small brand despite the growth she's experienced.

What does it mean to me to be named a Walpole 2020 Power List winner?

To be named a Walpole 2020 Power List winner is an immense honour and also a testament to the Brands of Tomorrow Programme’s success.

Being part of the Walpole family has allowed me to create many exciting opportunities and gain the confidence to tap into the people I admire (and who sometimes scare me), to learn from their experiences and extract what I need in order to thrive in my own life and business. It is such a joy to now be in a position to pass on some of that knowledge to future Brands of Tomorrow.

Why do you think you were named on the List this year?

In what has been a challenging year for all of us, I think a combination of sheer determination and hard work while sticking to my own creative path, leaving me with no time to compare my work or to follow trends. Maintaining the magic of a small brand despite the growth, with the ability to create small or large projects and pivot in the current climate.

My love of people. Spending time discussing their projects and bringing them to life fuels my creativity and makes me tick. I will always have time for people in search of advice or inspiration. It has always been so much more than just the end product for me, and over the years many clients have also become close friends and continue to inspire me and I hope I will continue to do the same for them, along with many others.
