A resident of the English city of Cambridge founded a clothing brand and became a millionaire. A related story appeared on The Sun.
According to the material, 33-year-old Adam Frisby dropped out of school at the age of 16 and took a job at a fast food restaurant Burger King. According to the man, in 2013 he noticed a shortage in the women’s clothing market and decided to open his own business. “I didn’t have a business model or any plan, but I decided that it was worth trying,” the hero of the article shared.
The Englishman has invested one thousand pounds (103 thousand rubles) in the development of his store. He bought six dresses from a wholesaler and sold them at three times the price on social media.
After a while, he was noticed by the English TV presenter Lauren Pope and offered to cooperate. “Lauren said that many other companies offered her to do a joint business, but she liked my vision of this business,” Frisbee said.
Collaboration with a star allowed the entrepreneur to found his own company In The Style, develop many clothing collections and sign contracts with a large number of stars.
According to the documents, the hero owns more than one third of the business. As the CEO of the company, the man receives an annual salary of 198 thousand pounds sterling (20.3 million rubles).
“I always believed that I could achieve something like this, but I did not expect such a tremendous success. Always follow your dreams, it is never too late to do your favorite thing,” the entrepreneur emphasized.
In February, a former homeless man opened a business on Instagram and became a millionaire. As a child, 25-year-old Branden Condy from Virginia was forced to live in poverty. According to the man, one day his mother was unexpectedly fired from her job, and the family was given 12 hours to collect things and leave the house. After that, for several years, Condi spent the night with friends or on the street.
