Wow! We’re on the shortlist for the Mother and Baby 2010 awards. We are so pleased that two of our newest, innovative products have been recognised for their great quality and usability but also that the product that started The Gro Company 10 years ago the Grobag baby sleep bag, continues to be an essential nursery item whether baby’s at home or out and about as both our options have been recognised.
Four of our products have been shortlisted in two categories.
In the Best Nursery Product category the Grobag Baby Sleep Bag and the Innovative new Gro-clock have both been listed. In the Best Travel Product the Travel Grobag Sleep Bag and the Gro-Anywhere blind have been listed.
The awards are a huge undertaking with over 500 products being tested. Every product is extensively tested by a great panel of judges, a volunteer team of mums!
So we’re keeping our fingers crossed and looking forward to finding out the results in November.
