Selling a £70M Family Business With Neville Wright The Smart Connector
-
- Entrepreneurship
Neville Wright famously sold his family retail business KiddieCare business to Morrisons for £70M in 2011 - a record beating price for an independent outlet in the depths of a recession.
Throughout his 45-year career in business, property investment, retail and construction have been at the heart of serial entrepreneur Neville’s success. He developed a property maintenance business, expanding into retail, alongside buying and selling various businesses. Spinning plates in each of the businesses to keep them going was very intense and educational, becoming an art which he thrived on. In addition to his success with Kiddiecare, Neville is also a no.1 best selling author, mentor, investor and property developer.
In this fascinating interview, Neville talks about the challenges and rewards of being in business with his long term partner and wife, Marilyn, and what it really means to run a family business over the long term.
How can anyone in our society retire at the age of 24 having no money and no education? Neville says, ‘it’s easy for some, all you need is to be in your element - so when you find that you are in your element you will never have to work another day in your life.’ (Entrepreneur Spotlight)
