Episode 107 // Stacy Bannor of Bannor Toys
Today on the podcast we’re with Stacy Bannor of Bannor Toys in Madrid, Iowa (pop. 2,543). Stacy’s sharing how what started as her husband’s creative outlet to support her daycare quickly turned into a popular wooden toy business. From moving their business from their garage to the city and then to a small town, plus expanding their business line to later refining that into a core line, it’s been quite an exciting journey. We also talk abut what it means to have a family business and advice for couple entrepreneurs who are working together.
Bannor Toys are some of our favorite gifts to give at baby showers, so head on over to their website and check out their product line - because we have a feeling you’ll feel the same way about them as we do!
Just do it. Had we really thought about what we were jumping into, I don’t think we woud have done it. Instead he just bought a scroll saw and he cut out a truck and we signed up for a church bazaar. And it unraveled into something great.

We wanted our kids in a smaller community with less people, we wanted to be in a community where we could make a difference.
