Connecting to one of The WHEAT Company co-owner Molly Shaheen’s core roots, The Shop by WHEAT opened in Dover, New Hampshire, in Fall 2023. The City of Dover is not only New Hampshire’s oldest continuous settlement, having just celebrated its 400th Birthday, but also the 7th oldest in the United States. With a rich family history in the area and located in a retail space she frequented as a child, the boutique is a full-circle moment for Molly, representing the first physical location for The Shop by WHEAT in her home state of New Hampshire.  

 Situated across from the historic Cocheco Mill, which at its peak was producing 65 million yards of cotton per year with a 2/3 female workforce, Molly & Huw couldn’t help but recognize the stark parallels between Dover’s incredible garment-related history and The WHEAT Company’s own evolution.
