ECO baby business The Little Green Sheep has won another significant industry award.

The company based at Stockwood, near Inkberrow has been acclaimed Yeo Valley’s British business of the month, a competition which celebrates Britain’s best homegrown businesses. As well as winning the award, The Little Green Sheep will feature on the Yeo Valley farming and dairy homepage throughout August and be included on the British Business page.

Founded in 2006 by two friends Mark Nicholls and Paul Maurice, The Little Green Sheep Family aims to offer parents and babies the best in baby bedtimes. Mr Nicholls said: "We were delighted to find out we had won Yeo Valley’s British business of the month award. It’s a lovely way to celebrate British business and it’s encouraging to have won through public votes. This is a truly significant time for The Little Green Sheep Family and this award is a fantastic boost for the business and truly motivating for the whole team during such a busy time.”

August is set to be a major month for the multi award winning brand as it launches its new baby brand Snüz, which will become the home of its flagship product, the SnüzPod bedside crib. August will also unveil a e-brand, which will see the company go back to its organic roots, focusing on natural mattresses and bedding.
