TrendyKidz

About

My name is Bev and I started my own kids clothing company, after being in the corporate world for many years. My Girls were 12 and 13 and I could not find anything decent for them to wear. My 12yr old was 'chunky' and needed a ladies sz 14 which of course came with plunging necklines and low-rise / hipster pants. My 13 yr old was so tall and skinny that she needed a ladies 10 just to get the length in the arms and legs.

None of these 'womens' clothes were appropriate for 2 girls entering puberty, but none of the teenage clothes fitted them.

So, being disgruntled lead to me starting a company and going to China to find manufacturers. I have designed age appropriate childrens clothing for all kids, regardless of their size. Each item includes adjustable waists / adjustable necklines etc.

TrendyKidz is unique because, whilst the clothing is durable and high quality with adjustable waists and necklines where appropriate, all of the "standard" size boundaries have dissolved (e.g. if a child was 6 but needed a size 8 in clothing, they would usually have to go into the 8-14yr range)

TrendyKidz stops a 6yr old from potentially having to dress inappropriately as a teen, by ensuring that we supply larger sizes in the correct style for each age group.

We are featured in the current issue of the Flourish Magazine and listed as a "Best value" business.

TrendyKidz has an online shop and we are currently wholesaling to stores around Australia. I have a few Party Plan consultants and desperately need more!

I am looking to recruit 16 in WA and another 16 in Adelaide in the next month. Though anyone anywhere else in Australia would be welcomed too. I pay very high commission (30%) and provide all the required stationary and a TrendyKidz Polo... the set up costs are low and my average consultants and earning around $75 / hr with the highest earning consultant getting approx $130 / hr.

The clothes are exceptional quality and most items are in the $20 - $30 range. I found I needed to have higher prices from china so as to cater for the minimum quantities required when manufacturing.... so I left China (and my marriage, and my career, all at the same time and went to Bali for a holiday..... as you do!!)

My goal is to offer an equivalent quality product to people who can not necessarily afford the designer labels in the market place. I can now do this because I own my own factory - known as the cleanest factory in Bali!

By being a business owner in Bali, I have found that I am able to support my whole village, its school and children and also the local orphanage. I get great pleasure from seeing the staff and their families thrive and have found that starting this business has been the most satisfying thing I have ever done! My staff are really happy, They receive double the standard wage in Bali, have their health cover paid (for their families too) and a chef to cook their lunch each day.

I get to go to Bali every 6-8 weeks, so have found my dream job...

Now it just needs to GROW! My consultants are in a friendly sales competition and the winner will get a ticket to Bali with some spending money, to see the factory and have a relaxing holiday!
