Who we are!
We are brothers Nathan (age 13) and Eli (16). We live in Te Anau, New Zealand with our family and our Golden Labrador, Luka. We love dogs, parkrun and we love going on trips and having adventures.
The Journey…
In 2018 while travelling New Zealand with our family in a Motorhome, Nathan (then 7) decided to sell bags of lollies to fellow campers to fund his passion for Lego! When lockdowns happened he looked for new ideas and switched to selling fun enamel “Curly Kiwi” pins online and at local markets. As a keen runner, many of Nathans first customers were also runners, pinning their favourite badges to their running vests and hats.
Nath’s older brother is Autistic and he helped him start his own online shop, selling dog leads, treats and accessories. Eli named it “Luka Loves You” after their beloved Lab.
Now they join forces to make one epic online store, with big dreams to open a boutique store and coffee cart in their home of Fiordland, themed of course in their passions for canines and outdoor adventures!
