Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

My name is Alex Shirley-Smith and I am the founder and CEO of a small company that sells Tree Tent and giant hammocks in an attempt to get people to take more interest in our forested environments. We hope that through increased engagement and awareness, we can help save some of the world’s last remaining primary forests and help plant new ones to make sure that future generations are not left with barren land.

Our flagship Tree Tent, the Tentsile Stingray is a 3 person suspended tent that uses ratchets and 2.5ton webbing straps to create a comfortable accommodation pod that is big enough for a young family to camp in the trees.

This year, we will be looking at an estimated total of around 12,000 tree tents and giant hammocks sold which is about 20% up on last years’ total.
