Freckleface Coffee Co opens in Stamford as fragrance company branches out

From a 14-year-old’s school project to having shops across the country, a mother and son are continuing to expand their business empire.

Tasked with coming up with a viable business idea for homework in 2017, Noah Carlile-Swift began making candles with his mum Tara.

What began as a hobby has grown into Freckleface Home Fragrance, with a workshop in Bourne and shops in Stamford, York, Leeds and Cambridge and products stocked in more than 650 other stores.
