How to start and scale a business in the gifting sector
Posted: Wed 20th Nov 2024
Harriet Hastings founded Biscuiteers in 2007 after identifying a gap in the luxury food gifting market. Following a career in publishing and PR, Harriet joined forces with her husband Stevie, who owned a catering and event management business, to build a business and a brand.
Seventeen years later, Harriet has grown Biscuiteers into a household name, manufacturing 3 million biscuits yearly and employing 200 people.
Aside from Biscuiteers, Harriet is a huge advocate for women in business. As a founding member of Buy Women Built, she helps spotlight female-led brands, companies and entrepreneurs.
