Two dads turn baby clothing company into international business

Two Wirral dads who lost their jobs during the pandemic are expanding their clothing brand to new international territories.

Marlo & Cole was established in March 2021 by Ben Hatfield and Chris Rice, both aged 36, who met when they were pupils at Birkenhead School. The brand's designs are inspired by the works of music icons including David Bowie, LCD Soundsystem and Bjork.

The company has already seen success in the US through selling its products through indie band The National's own website. Now, it is expanding its international sales, starting with New Zealand and Australia, reports BusinessLive.
