Our Values
Our company began very small - with $100 worth of product in a tiny green milkcrate stored in a shelf in our kitchen. It grew from there to a bookshelf, then a closet, then a bedroom, then a basement and finally, in 2005, the business expanded into a small commercial space. We opened a retail store in 2006 and in 2007 moved our shipping center into a larger warehouse that is set to double in size in 2008. Our focus from 2002 through 2005 was retail through Cotton Babies. In 2005, we launched the bumGenius product line. This product has provided the primary fuel for the growth from 2005 through today. Today, Cotton Babies employs many people in the St. Louis area who work in the warehouse shipping orders, in the retail store helping our local customers, in the offices providing administrative support or in their homes sewing products.
