Luxury bedding business Secret Linen has won the Sustainable Business of the Year Award for its environmentally-friendly approach to high quality home goods.

Sisters Molly and Harriet are behind Secret Linen, recognised at this year’s business awards. Combining Molly’s background in textile design with Harriet’s marketing expertise, the pair have built a brand focused on producing luxury bedding at fair prices. All products are designed in-house and made using organic materials.

With its warehouse in Bognor Regis and team members also working in Selsey, the business is demonstrating how thoughtful design and sustainable materials can go hand in hand.

Alice Dee, ESG and sustainability manager at Secret Linen, said: “A lot of the powers that be are pushing sustainability away, but for the Secret Linen store, it remains firmly embedded. It’s a non-negotiable for us. We know that we can be a force for good, and while we are a small brand, we do mighty things.

"Sustainability is always at the root of the business and woven into its DNA. And as a female-founded company, it’s just so important.”
