A woman who began making and selling clothes from her spare bedroom has opened a shop in Beeston, taking on an ‘exciting’ adventure. In 2020 Suzie Ford made a huge career change and began her sustainable clothing brand, Ford & Guy, as an online store on Etsy, a global online marketplace, where people come together to make, sell, buy and collect unique items
Now, the 31-year-old from Long Eaton has opened up a brand new store on Chilwell Road in Beeston. The Ford & Guy shop sells a range of sustainable clothing and homeware made locally.
The shop also acts as a creative hub where Suzie hosts a range of workshops and events. The store, which is painted in a striking pink colour, first opened on April 2 this year.
