Anne Walker, Internaional Dance Supplies
Thirty years ago, dance teacher Anne Walker started making leotards in her bedroom for her students. Other teachers asked for costumes, too, and International Dance Supplies was born! With a £7m-plus turnover and 60 staff, IDS is now UK's largest B2B dancewear mail-order company supplying dancewear as far afield as Australia.
