Episode 07: A vision for sustainable luxury and a better client buying experience with Rob Green, Co-founder of Coat Paints
If These Walls Could Talk: The Business of Interiors PodcastShow Notes
In Episode 07 of the If These Walls Could Talk Podcast we’re talking about paint. Rachel interviews Rob Green, who is one of the co-founders of Coat Paints. Coat Paints was established at the beginning of the COVID era, about three years ago. And Rachel started to become aware of this as an alternative challenger brand to some of the other premium paint brands that were in the industry and it caught her eye. And over the last year or two, it has taken the digital space quite significantly. I t's a really interesting story and the journey that Rob and his co-founder also called Rob have taken is an inspiring one but actually fundamentally it's one that probably speaks to our values more than anything.
