Guy Schanschieff receives MBE

Guy Schanschieff was awarded an MBE for his services to business at a ceremony at Buckingham Palace on the 31st March 2011.

Guy and his wife Jo founded Bambino Mio in 1997, and helped transform the reusable nappy industry. At the time Guy and Jo started Bambino Mio, reusable nappies were thought to be dated and behind the times. Guy has strived to not only support Bambino Mio, but the entire reusable nappy industry; helping create a product category which has become an increasingly popular choice for new parents all over the world.

From humble beginnings Bambino Mio has gone from strength to strength offering an extensive range of products and accessories in numerous national stores and independents throughout the UK and in over 70 countries worldwide. The Bambino Mio nappy system is now seen by the majority of parents as the leading mainstream, high performance reusable nappy brand.
 
Guy Schanschieff commented: “It is a huge honour to visit the Palace to receive my award. This recognition is truly special and a real testament not only to Bambino Mio’s success but also for what the whole reusable nappy industry has accomplished over the last 15 years.”
