Hosiery and clothing retailer Snag hails latest achievement
The inclusive firm, which was launched in 2017 by Brie Read to fill a gap in the market for tights that actually fit, has been named Digital & E-commerce Business of the Year at the FSB awards, after being named a finalist at the regional heats in 2020.
The growing brand has to date sold more than three million pairs of tights, with its products sold in more than 90 countries, and it opened a Netherlands distribution centre in December to keep up with increased consumer demand.

With the transition into apparel, we believe we are one step closer to this goal.”
