Fast forward almost four years since our initial meeting and she has gone on to not only charm the Dragon's Den investors but secure one helluva FIERCE business deal.
Fabulous Furballs is an upscale pet grooming shop that Krista launched four years ago after complaining to her husband that there was nowhere to buy her precious pup a cashmere sweater (not gonna lie that seems extravagant and odd to me but what the hell do I know?).
She opened up FF in Sherwood Park and evolved it into a Grooming Academy, franchised into Edmonton, St. Albert and Calgary, made some saavy business decisions and kicked some serious ass. Not surprising, the girl came from a high-powered financial management firm in Las Vegas before moving here to be with her husband.
Read more at the EdmontonJournal.com about how Krista did something in Dragon's Den history that no one else has ever done.
Did I mention she was on an Animal Grooming Reality show on Animal Planet? All while wearing feather boas and Stilletos.
Oh and she started her own reality show based on her store.
March3, 2012 Just wanted to let you know about the Fabulous Furballs Company in Edmonton.
ReplyDeleteThe link below tells some of the story about this Company & Fabulous Krista.
She owes us, other Edmonton businesses & staff money plus took payment of $9000 per student for her Grooming School & disappeared without giving them their final certificates.
