Eco-Friendly Children’s Clothing Launches At Green Peas Kids
26 Jun 2009
PRESS RELEASE
June 2009
Green Peas Kids has introduced its debut line of fashionable, fun, and affordable styles in bamboo, organic cotton, and hemp for babies and children 0-24 months.
Colorful hemp dresses adorned with ruffles and embroidery; handmade hair clips; and blankets are now available. Separates for boys and girls with matching belts will be available in July.
The company is the brainchild of Founder and CEO Sebastian Salvado who noticed a huge gap in the marketplace for cute, colorful and reasonably-priced, eco-friendly clothing options for boys and girls when he shopped for his daughter Lorena, two-year-old company muse and model.
“I was surprised to discover that eco-friendly children clothes were largely restricted to brown, off-white and sage and were usually very expensive,” said Salvado.
“I knew that there was a large market for fun as well as affordable options, which would ignite and encourage a life full of imagination for Lorena and her contemporaries. A chance encounter with an adorable and colorful bamboo sweater designed by one of my friends gave rise to a new business idea, and Green Peas Kids was born.”
