Established in 2009.
The Stockist (formerly Fresh Boutique) opened in 2009 by Brother Sister Duo Ian and Helen Wade. The Stockist offers clothing, shoes, accessories with a little bit of heritage and history. We would rather offer quality clothing that is on trend but timeless. In 2014 Ian took his knowledge from The Stockist and headed east to New York to expand his experience and knowledge. In October of 2014 The Stockist expanded and moved across the street from the old location. This has now allowed us to really create and curate the shop properly. Expanding both the men’s and women's offerings, hosting events and home to Iron & Resin Outpost shop as of January of 2015.
Helen has been living in Salt Lake City for over 17 years now that this is her home! A University of Utah graduate, she has taken her love of outdoors, fashion and adventure and created The Stockist. If she is not in the shop she is generally chasing after her 5 year old Isla, who you will also see in the shop from time to time.
