Exquisite Wool Traders Founder and General Manager Polly McGuckin has wool in her blood but ventured out on her own in 2008 creating Exquisite Wool Traders to offer a diverse range of products created from pristine New Zealand wool.
Highlighting its benefits for sleep quality and environmental sustainability, McGuckin shares her journey from running a family business, Yaldhurst Wools, to introducing innovative products like woollen caskets.
Discussing the state of the wool industry, she emphasises the importance of a global campaign to boost wool's market share, currently only 1-2% of the textile trade.
McGuckin also touches on the diverse range of wool products available on their website, exquisitewooltraders.co.nz, including blankets, knitwear, and eco-friendly wool pots.
