Now Matthew and his wife Victoria created the business in 2005, when they took a leap of faith and combined his experience as a product designer with hers as a qualified dietitian to create a range of toxin free weaning products.
After two years’ extensive research and development, they officially launched their baby product range in 2007 with the award winning Bisphenol-A free baby bottle - the Silbottle.
In the interview, Matthew talks us through the story of Babisil’s rapid growth to date, he also outlines his ambitious plans for further international expansion and shares some of the business lessons he’s learned along the way.
