Taking a leap of faith, holding our breath, plunging into unchartered waters...
This image, taken by is a beautiful representation of the feelings swirling around at La Bom lately.
This global supply chain crisis has been reeking havoc on our production plans, we were finding solutions to price increases and fabric delays but when our factory called last week with news that they couldn't produce for us until the end of July, well that stopped us in our tracks. 😥
Hearts were heavy and sleep was scarce.
But just when you think all the doors have closed and you can't see the way out, a window opens.
What was in one moment a complete disaster has turned into a really exciting development. We have just found a small atelier in Mallorca, our home Island. It was always the dream to produce here but we thought it impossible. It is early days and we will be making samples in the next few weeks but we are hopeful that this move will be a positive one. Not only can we reduce our carbon footprint whilst supporting a small local business, but we have the option for very small runs of product ensuring no waste or dead stock.
Win win!
We will share the new samples with you soon 🤩 💫
