Jane Barry started Abundance in October 2002 in Esher, Surrey. Jane began selling general gifts and toiletries, to begin with. Her training was in interior design and before having a family work for the interiors company, Osborne and Little, so always had a good eye for fabrics, home accessories and most of the time had good taste!

Abundance works well as a family business – each bringing out the best in each other with regards to the business. As a buying team, they fill in the gaps which the other leaves. On the whole, they are very honest with each other and this works well as they both have Abundance’s best interests at heart.
