Meet THEFOSSILSTORE™
Richard Allison
Founder | CEO - 1969 - to date
Richard brings a lifetime of skills to THE FOSSIL STORE™ and these are evident in every aspect of the company.
Creator of THE FOSSIL STORE™, Richard has nurtured his second lifestyle, a micro business from the early 90's and if not for a tremendous amount of hard work in the beginning, THE FOSSIL STORE™ would not be here today. One of the leading FOSSIL entrepreneurs of his time. Together, Richard and Benjamin make a great team and together, they can literally achieve whatever they put their minds too.
Benjamin Allison
Partner | Director - '2001 - to date
Benjamin discovered his first fossil whilst hunting the dry riverbeds at the foot of the Atlas Mountain Range in '92. This started a journey that saw Benjamin travel the world to trade in palaeontological items in '02. Since, Benjamin has brought THE FOSSIL STORE™ into the 21st century with a new vision. To bring the very best, but to the highest standards from start to finish, no matter the processes or time, this is a concept worth achieving, and that, Benjamin has surely secured for THE FOSSIL STORE™.
Now, Benjamin helps oversee all decisions within THE FOSSIL STORE™. But mainly, Benjamin is always working on the next project, if not, you can find him working on the online shop brand, site coding, marketing, CAD's / designs for the AES stand series, photography and videography - and, this is all Benjamin, no outsourced work! The rest of the time you will find Benjamin prepping and designing new material. This is where a lot of his time is dedicated and more often than not, his work is sold before reaching our online shop. With all the above in mind, Benjamin continues to pursue further goals within THE FOSSIL STORE™ whilst also managing his other award winning businesses, V®, BRWA and soRAW. We're just excited to see where Benjamin takes THE FOSSIL STORE™ as we continue to move, positively forward.
