2 Became 4 was founded in 2003 when as parents, we realised that modern family
life with small children was extremely hectic, but nobody was focused on
providing products to help to make family life easier. Our goal was to
exclusively sell specific tried and tested products that we source from
international suppliers and that offer parents something better in terms of
enabling them to participate in everyday activities with their children with
less hassle and more enjoyment.
Initially focusing on the needs of families with twin and multiple children, we
launched our product line with the extremely popular EZ-2-Nurse feeding cushion
which has now become the essential product for any parent of newborn twin and
multiple babies. We later discovered Austrian pushchair manufacturer Marco, who
had a reputation for developing innovative products designed to be useful in
the modern world. No product encapsulated this more than their recently
developed Marco Sky pushchair which like Marco themselves, was little known
outside of mainland Europe.
2 Became 4 are now the exclusive UK and Ireland distributors and importers of
Marco products. In addition to our specialist retail focus on twin and multiple
parents and child minders, 2 Became 4 market and support Marco's products for
these markets.
At 2 Became 4 our philosophy is simple, our customers are our life. We combine
this with the best in business efficiency and service and provide
innovative products such as the Marco Sky. We deliver trusted value
and a quality service to you, our customers.
