A local business success story is looking at a FAB new future.

The Face and Body Shop in Grotton started as a small beauty salon with three staff in 1997.

Since then it has doubled in size, won a clutch of beauty industry awards, employs 20 staff and has grown into three ventures under the name FAB Group.

As well as the salon, owners Valerie and Steven Simpson have launched the FAB Clinic and FAB Windows, which sells window display materials.

"FAB Clinic will allow us to offer state of the art ‘cosmecutical’ products and treatments as well as aesthetic interventions such as anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers," said Valerie.

FAB Windows has been years in the planning and followed struggles to dress their own windows

"For years we struggled to find the right materials to display our message, so we decided to do it ourselves to take the stress out of it for everyone else."
