Ollie's shop

CEO

Jul 2010 – Jun 2017 · 6 yrs 11 mos

Ollie's Shop was first started in 2010 by Ollie Forsyth, who is now 16 years old. Having struggled with dyslexia, he discovered his entrepreneurial flair by selling friendship bracelets to his friends. This idea caught on and soon he was selling them to all his friends' parents and their friends as well! Ollie's Shop has gone from strength to strength and Ollie is now proud to launch his new 2014 collection. He has teamed up with a few carefully chosen charities who he is hoping to support through his sales.
