SUGARHILL BRIGHTON

The SUGARHILL BRIGHTON journey began in 2002 with Pawel opening a pop-up clothing store in Barcelona. Fresh out of Brighton University, Pawel’s little sister Aleks was recruited over to Spain to co-manage the store. Inspired by their love of travel, Pawel and Aleks designed and produced clothing for the store on the beautiful island of Bali, Indonesia. These hand-finished styles were a big hit with customers, and so, in 2006 Sugarhill Boutique was created, with Brighton, UK as it’s new design base.

All our suppliers are asked to sign the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) which summarises the ethical standards under which our products must be manufactured. These include paying a living wage, safe and humane working practices and zero discrimination.

– Our regular mailing bags are made from recycled paper and are fully recyclable or easily re-usable.
– Our larger mailing bags are made from 100% recycled material with biodegradable additive.
– We are now using biodegradable clothing bags made from plant material, instead of using plastic. 100% of our 2021 products are packed in biodegradable bags.

Our small business currently employs 15 people across our studio, warehouse and stores. 99% of our staff are women and as a small team, its essential we support each other to deliver the best product and service we can, which has fostered many great friendships over the years. We’re firm believers in beach lunch-breaks, park rounders and office dogs, as well as being a Living Wage Employer.
