Christophe Convert

founder, product designer, mechanical engineer, all round good guy & wiz

Christophe, as you might have guessed, is French. He’s the founder of Convert Design, of which Bottld is the very first own-branded product, but he’s been working on major brand product design for decades.

he’s very particular about French coffee and French biscuits, but apart from that is very easy going and a truly good guy.

he’s an innovator by nature and can’t help coming up with new and better ways of doing things. he also has a long-standing passion for reuse and recycle which started as a boy.

so, when he’s not designing market-changing products, he can be found tinkering under the bonnet of French cars, or renovating his home, a former pub.

Shirley Billson

all-round marketing something

Shirley will say she has been in marketing longer than most people have lived, has a few qualifications to her name – and there’s few business sectors she hasn’t worked in.

she’s also a coffee-loving, tree hugger, the author of two non-fiction books, has a black belt in tae kwon do and is a qualified hypnotherapist. So don’t look into her eyes.

she’s cares deeply about protection of the planet and stands fully behind both Bottld as a brand and Convert Design as a business in the hope of a kinder, fairer world.

when she’s not nursing a bad back, she’s prone to potter in gardens and is always up for learning new skills.
