Bringing great brands to independent retailers in Scotland

So, what do we do?

We love GREAT products. Ones that we can get passionate about. And we love marketing and selling them for you. And we’re quite keen on branding and colour.  And we love showing your products to gorgeous, independent shops. We ONLY deal with independents. Contact us now for a chat to see how we can help you out. (and if we don’t think we can, we’ll tell you. We’re honest like that.)

 

About Sarah

Sarah is the founder of Searson Fox and has over 25 years experience of working in various industries within the UK, starting her career as a freelance translator, liaising with the likes of Renault and Volvo with beautiful Scottish leather and  exporting and marketing flexible ducting around the world. It was there her passion for working with people and selling arose. Given it is no mean feat to get passionate about a piece of ducting, she moved on to work with products she genuinely loved. Now working with some fabulous and innovative products in the nursery and toy sector in the UK, Sarah is always open to a great idea and an even better product behind it. Searson Fox was named after two inspirational women in Sarah’s family, one whose motto was always “Oh go on, take the bull by the horns, you can do it!” and that’s how Searson Fox came about. And we try to live by that motto most days.

A wee pop in this morning to see one of our Amica stockists…their mice in bed Xmas decoration has to be one of my favourites out of their brilliant range. Handmade and fairtrade, these combine fun with beautiful in the best way. Still time to stock them before Xmas - if you’d like more info on how to stock then get in touch #shopindie
Among my visits this week was a gorgeous new shop in the lovely town of Berwick upon Tweed. Another shop for the owners of the Treetop Toys Emporium…and it’s a wee beauty at that. Gorgeous windows, a lovely crafting area and right in the middle of a busy wee town centre. The Dinos have set up camp but are already shifting fast. Go and say hello if you’re in Berwick. The owner was telling me she got a handwritten note thru the door on her first day from a wee one to say thank you for opening up a lovely new toy shop in town for all the children ♥️ It’s not brain surgery any of this we’re doing but it’s wee pockets of happiness and moments of sunshine that help keep us all going in this Wonderful World of Independent Retail…. Remember to Shop Local This Xmas #shopindie

Meet Draig the Dragon. He’s responsibly sourced, stuffed with recycled filling and has a little brother who rattles too. Soooo cute. I mean, fierce Draig, fierce!! He however is just about to fly out of stock before he’s even arrived so if you’d like some let me know asap. 🔥 #shopindie
Big thanks to our stockist @willow_boutique_uk for making sure the Wicked Witch of the West didn’t try and steal the last of their Dino stock in the window AND for having stock of the most fabulous moustaches so my lovely angel of a daughter could perfect her ‘Grandad’ Halloween costume 👌

Actual footage of me in complete denial about the school Halloween party tonight which requires a good deal of input from me from a face painting and costume organisation point of view and realising I have about 5 minutes in between work and after school activities… 😬

Anyone else?! This time of year just never fails to come around and literally slap me in the face multiple times a day..! 

Anyway….must dash!! 🏃🏼‍♀️ 🎃 👻 

If anyone wants an appointment for me to come and see them please get in touch. Still time to get lovely best selling toys, games, decorations and stocking fillers in!

Current obsession.
Currently sitting at 5-5. 
Who will be the final victor tonight??? 
We love The Muddles in our house. 
A fab stocking filler idea or just for random evenings in October. Get in touch if you’d like to find out more. 🥔 #shopindie
Teenager in the house! Happy birthday to my boy. The cheeky smile has never changed and hope it never does. 💙 Can’t be too schmultzy in case he sees this…

LOVE YOU SON!
