At Creative Nature, International Women’s Day holds a special place in our hearts. As a female-owned business, we’re not just celebrating the achievements of women worldwide but also reflecting on the journey we’ve taken to build a brand rooted in passion, resilience, and innovation. This year’s theme, #EmbraceEquity, resonates deeply with our mission to create opportunities, break barriers, and inspire others along the way.
The Journey of Creative Nature
Creative Nature was founded by our founder Julianne Ponan MBE with a clear purpose: to provide delicious, allergen-free products that everyone can enjoy, regardless of dietary restrictions or preferences. As a female entrepreneur, navigating challenges often means confronting societal expectations, advocating for your vision, and leading with determination in an industry that can sometimes undervalue women’s contributions.
For Julianne, being a female founder has been about proving that passion, combined with hard work, can create something truly impactful. It’s also about setting an example for other women and showing that success is achievable, even when the odds may feel stacked against you.
12 years later, Julianne has created an award winning business with a range of award winning products seeing awards from the likes of Free From Food Awards, Grocer Awards and more! Within the range is Baking Mixes, Snack Bars, Confectionery, Superfoods and Savoury Snacks.
Supporting Women in Business
International Women’s Day is a reminder of how far we’ve come, but also of how much work is left to do. Women continue to face challenges in accessing funding, scaling businesses, and breaking into male-dominated industries. That’s why we’re committed to supporting initiatives that empower women, whether it’s by sharing our story, participating in events, or mentoring the next generation of female entrepreneurs.
We’re also passionate about giving back to the community. By choosing Creative Nature products, you’re not only supporting a female-owned business but also contributing to a movement that champions equality and inclusion.
Celebrating Women Everywhere
On International Women’s Day, we celebrate not just our own journey but the incredible achievements of women around the world. To every woman out there who’s chasing her dreams, breaking barriers, or making a difference in her community – we see you, and we celebrate you.
Let’s continue to lift each other up, champion equity, and create a future where everyone can thrive. Together, we’re stronger.
Happy International Women’s Day from all of us at Creative Nature!
