From kitchen table to £23m success
In this episode of Grow With Evergreen, we sit down with Claire Harris, the founder and co-CEO of Talking Tables, to discuss how she built a £23 million homeware and lifestyle empire. With over 25 years of organic growth, Claire shares the journey of taking a “kitchen table” idea and scaling it into a global brand found in major supermarkets and independent boutiques alike.
Talking Tables is a UK-based lifestyle brand focused on party wear, gifting, and bringing people together. They operate across traditional and digital channels, ensuring a presence that balances old-school marketing with modern performance metrics.
Claire’s top recommendation for any brand looking to grow is simple: Get out of the office. Visit your retailers and customers in person to understand what they need, as they are the true “oracles” of your business.
