"The first shop we opened was as a showcase for our manufacturing business. It was originally an old-fashioned grocery shop, Cullen's grocery store, and we changed it very little. We opened next to Biba on Kensington Church Street in 1969. We chose the name 'Bus Stop' because it was so identifiably British; and red because it was the colour of telephone kiosks, pillar boxes, and London buses."
