About

Debbie Moore founded the Pineapple dance studios in 1979, in an old pineapple warehouse in Covent Garden. Her aim was to make dance accessible to everyone because, in her words, 'To dance is to live.' Soon afterwards, Debbie launched Pineapple's clothing range in response to the demand for fashionable dancewear. Debbie became the first female Chairman to walk the floor of the London Stock Exchange when Pineapple became a public company in 1982. In 1983, Debbie published 'The Pineapple Dance Book', an insider's guide to the world of fitness and dance, including an exercise guide and diet tips.

In 1984, Debbie was awarded the Veuve Clicquot 'Businesswoman Of The Year Award' in recognition of her achievements as an entrepreneur. In March 1988, Debbie led the trend for management buy-outs by re-privatising Pineapple.

In 1989, Debbie published 'When A Woman Means Business' - a book offering business and lifestyle advice based on her own experiences and those of other pioneering female entrepreneurs. In the same year, Debbie and Pineapple were nominated for 'Contemporary Designer Of The Year' at the British fashion awards. In 1999, Debbie's book 'When A Woman Means Business' was reprinted in Chinese as an inspiration to Chinese women. In July 2000, Debbie launched the 'Pineapple by Debbie Moore' range in Debenhams, which has now been extended to include swimwear, leisurewear and childrenswear.
