Merry People - exhibitors/merry-people-designs-uk

Merry People began in 2014 when founder Dani Pearce ended up with wet feet and ruined shoes after her rainy commutes in Melbourne, Australia. Dani grew up on a farm in one of the wettest parts of Australia, so knew of the importance of a quality pair of Wellies. When she moved to the city, she found herself needing a waterproof footwear option that could work for everyday wear, from city to country. And so Merry People was created!

 

Finalists will have the opportunity to enhance their brand recognition, grow their audience, gain invaluable feedback and possibly get a new listing! The winner will receive a 2m² space off their 2025 stand, two 1-hour consultancy sessions (press relations, mentoring & hands on strategic advice) with Sharon Good, CEO of Good Results PR.
