about mustard made
It started with a long walk and two sisters living on the opposite side of the world. The idea was sparked by the question: What is it that you love that is uniquely you? Becca thought about her home and studio. She had a random selection of metal lockers. One flaky old one found on the side of the road, a few from antique stores and some new. She's always had a thing for lockers.
From that day in 2017 the work began to bring our colourful lockers to the world. We’ve grown so quickly and now have retail customers purchasing from our online stores worldwide. The count so far this year has been sales to 36 countries! We are also stocked by over 150 retailers in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Europe and the US – including Urban Outfitters, Oliver Bonas and Libertys London. In August 2021 we launched to retail customers in the US, with our wholesale operation to follow very soon. It’s an exciting time as there is lots more growth on the horizon.
Mustard in numbers:
- 2 offices, one based in Newcastle, Australia and the other in London, UK.
- 30 wonderful people make up Team Mustard in our Wholesale, Trade, Logistics, Merchandising, Customer Service, Creative, Marketing and Finance teams.
- 4 warehouses across the globe that service our core regions of Australia + New Zealand, United Kingdom, Europe and US + Canada.
- £160, 000+ donated to our charity partner, Beam. Beam bridges the gap between homelessness and a sustainable income for people who need some support.
Most importantly, Mustard is a business that really cares about our people. We support each other to make sure we all enjoy what we do and collaborate so everyone knows they have a team to support them.
Our vision is for Mustard to be a place where people of all cultures, ethnicity, abilities and sexual orientation feel welcome to work. We believe it's possible to really love your job and to show up to work as the whole, magnificent person you are!
We have lovely offices in London, UK and Newcastle, Australia.
We always love to hear from individuals who are looking to work with us and share the locker love! Please email your CV and cover letter to jointheteam@mustardmade.com
