Spice is a family business that began in the early 80's selling plimsolls in Camden Lock Market. "I remember getting up at 6am and working with my Mum and Sister in the freezing cold solidly every weekend from 7am to 7pm" says joint Owner and Head Buyer Gerard Levy. "It was tough, but it gave me a great education. My Mum was a real entrepeneur, she was one of the first people to have stall in Camden Lock Market and then opened a shop in an largely 'unknown' Primrose Hill. Incredible vision"

After working with several leading fashion accessory brands, Gerard took over the buying in the late 1990's. With the experience he had gained he set out invigorate the business. Soon Spice would be a destination and exclusive brand. Helen, retired in 2001 and Gerard and sister Simone now run the business.

So from humble beginings, Spice is now recognised as one of the leading shoe shops in the United Kingdom. In the last 10 years the business has been nominated for many awards, winning 'Independant Footwear Retailer of the Year 2011' & 'Women's Footwear Retailer of the Year 2008' plus, just recently Spice were named by Drapers as one of the top '100 Inspiring Independent for 2012' in the country.

The collection is a unique blend of the exclusive Spice London brand, premium designers, aswell as high street medium priced labels. Designers stocked include Paul Smith, Megumi Ochi, Chie Mihara, Ras, Camper, Castaner, T & F, C.Doux, Audley and Superga. Bags & accessories by Coccinelle, Paul Smith & Sequoia and for the little ones,

This unique concept has attracted a very loyal clientele, customers which include many well known celebrities, come back year after year.

Spice have 2 shops, one in Primrose Hill which has been open since 1985 and another in Islington which was opened in 2004. The shop interiors are white, clean and contemporary, the merchandise displayed in a minimal uncluttered style. But depsite this, the atmosphere is relaxed and informal. Customer service is high, yet the staff are all very friendly & helpful. They even offer free espresso in the Islington store!
