This is a young company established by co-founders Nancy Mims and Lisa Mims, sister-
in-laws. They decided to create their company after discovering that “green” textiles were not a
vailable to design their homes creatively.
For almost a decade Nancy was a successful textile print designer and Lisa u
sed her previous experience as a brand manager for Gillette and a consultant for several fashion start-ups to establish the company. Lisa now consults to Mod Green Pod from her home in England
