An idea born from not wanting to leave my dog at home while working 18-20 hours per day in my previous catering firm. Against popular belief in a new town and country, together with my co-founder I built and operated a thriving boutique doggie daycare and retail store. A world class business in an idyllic seaside paradise. Powerful branding and constant creative marketing combined with outstanding service delivery saw an at capacity business sold 10 years to the day after I opened the doors for the first time.

Founding my first company at 26 years old and designing, developing and taking a new product to market was a huge learning curve. I used all my skills and learnt a lot along the way. After creating enough independent awareness and sales to welcome interest from major retail chains, it became apparent my cost model with local production did not fit an external retail sales cost model. Instead, I sold the design. My first business success.- Market Research and Product Design- Creation of new product (Kiwi Woodfired Smokehouse)- Advertising and Promotion utilising Print, Radio, TVC, Online, Exhibitions, DM- Production management- Sales and supply management- Stock management and logistics
