At the recent Unbound event in London, I interviewed seven startup founders to find out more about the highs and lows of creating a successful business in the UK. While not running a tech company like the other six founders I interviewed, Jim Cregan nonetheless created a successful startup, Jimmy’s Iced Coffee, from the ground up.
ES: Jim, tell us what your company’s all about.
JC: I run a company called Jimmy’s Iced Coffee with my sister. We’re a range of awesome, ready-to-drink iced coffees that come in a 330ml carton you can pick up in supermarkets. We’re based in Bournemouth with a team of 11 and we’re having lots of fun, which is great.
Where did the idea for setting up this company come from?...
